Surnames: Pearson, Willis, Burton, Lawson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/XeB.2ACE/3344 Message Board Post: Does anyone know if the Christopher Pearson in the 1860 Hawkins Census, the C (G or C) Pearson in the 1870 Hawkins Census, and the Richard Pearson in the 1880 Hawkins Census are the same person?? All are married to Eliza and all appear to be around the same age. Their childrens' names and ages in each of the censuses also lead me to the conclusion that they are the same person. Any thoughts?
