Surnames: Mauk Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/XeB.2ACE/3301 Message Board Post: Mauk is a common name in Hawkins County especially in the Carter’s Valley/Gravely area. But I never heard the Monk surname in East Tennessee until now. However, I went to school in Wheaton, Maryland with a Debbie/Debra Monk, she was from Ohio originally. She won a Tony and Emmy award and please view/watch her as Pamela in the Devil's Advocate. LOL I’m sure she would be interested in a Hawkins County Tennessee Monk connection. Would appreciate your verification of Monk connections to this region and maybe we can help you. TC, Nanc Nancy E. Mayo
