Hello - I have a note based on Austin's Genealogical Dictionary of RI that one John HAWKINS was the son of (immigrant) William and Margaret HAWKINS, and that this John died in Providence ca 1726. Is the wife of this John Hawkins known? Several WorldConnect trees have his wife as Sarah 'Demeral' . However, it appears that the John Hawkins who m. Sarah Damarill is a different John Hawkins? I have not seen these Maryland Court records myself, but a Damarill researcher sent me this, which shows the John Hawkins who married Sarah Damarill was not of RI but of Maryland: William Dunkerton & Thomas OVERTON purchased these plantations from Robert HAWKINS, heir and administrator of John HAWKINS 30 May 1673 (Baltimore Co....) John HAWKINS, mariner of Boston, New England, Transported himself into Maryland 1651 (Maryland Land Patents, ABH: 316); frequently mentioned in Maryland records. Married Sarah, widow of Humphrey DAMARILL 15 Sept. 1654 in Boston by Gov. Bellingham (Boston Mrg records; 1:18). Murdered by servants at his plantation on Elk River, Baltimore Co. 16 Feb 1670/1 (Maryland Provincial Court Proceedings. JJ:478-85 in Archives of Maryland, 65; 1-8). Relict Sarah HAWKINS of New York gave letter of attorney 13 Oct 1672 to Augustine HERRMAN, Bohemia, Md., to obtain her share of John's estate in Maryland (Balt. Co. Deeds, IS#IK:42-4). John's brother Robert HAWKINS came over to Maryland and, at Maryland Council 4 Jan 1671/2, claimed John's estate as heir, requested letters of administration, and requested that the former letters of administration to John DAMRELL be quashed and vacated (Maryland Council Proc. RR:14, in Archives of MD., 15:20) I am descended from the William HAWKINS who m. Lydia BALLOU in 1678, but I would like to have the correct wife for his brother John. Thank you, Bonnie Oakland, California

Hello, are there any death records from 1883 to 1890 in Providence RI in the archives? If there are any, what do they mention? The name of the parents? Are there any records for local citizens of Providence RI such as when they came to the city, removals, taxes, immigration, year they got citizenship, origin etc. Where would be best to ask for? Thank you Morten Researching in RI Crandall, Mott, Whipple et al. Gartside, Cost, Billson, Ide, Ramsey, Potter et al. -- Psssst! Schon vom neuen GMX MultiMessenger gehört?

You might start with the Providence City Archives, in City Hall. There is a good index to Prov. VR, available at RI Historical Society and other libraries, but the City Archives could help you best. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, August 26, 2007 6:06 PM Subject: [RIGENWEB] record, citizens, death Hello, are there any death records from 1883 to 1890 in Providence RI in the archives?
