INDEX
wager1068
William came to
America in 1631. Settled in Providence in 1634. In England, he had learned
glove-making trade. He first met Margaret on the ship enrobe to America.
Passengers joked with them they would make a fine couple. Eventually they did.
William became an influential citizen and large land owner.
Found on 20 FEB
1634, among persons bound for St. Christopher's who have taken the oath of
allegiance before the Mayor of Dartmouth: William Haukins of Exter, Devon,
glover about 25 and Margaret Harwood of Stoke Gabriel, Devon, spinster about
22.
The issue of
William's parents have led some to erroneously attribute John (or William)
Hawkins and Katherine Gonson, mostly influenced by the fact that Katherine
Gonson was the daughter of a famous Navy official, Benjamin Gonson, and related
to Sir Frances Drake.
