Bio and Links
Bio Photo I am an eighty nine year old mother, grandmother, gr-grandmother, and recently a gr-gr-grandmother. On my 80th birthday my grandkids were ask to share what they remember about grandma. Because I realized they didn't know much about there ancestors, I decided to write down what I remembered of the stories that were told to me as I was growing up. That lead me to contact the Sequoia Genealogical Society.

Volunteers taught me how to find more than 100 years of local family history from the Tulare City Libraries Genealogical Collection.

One volunteer, a retired school teacher taught me, fourth grade style, how search the internet on the computed. That year my daughter and grand children gave me a computer for Christmas, and I was off and flying and now I added Find a Grave to my activities.

RE: Earl Ruffa 49399416
Hi Audrey,
Thanks for the update to Mr. Ruffa's memorial. I would be more than happy to transfer this memorial to a family member when they're ready to manage it.
Thanks for reaching out to me.

Richard Hawkins
Hi, Mrs. Hoffman,
I am related through Richard Hawkins, your 7th great grandfather, as a grand-daughter also. Haven't figured the degree yet but through a son, John Hawkins who from looking at your information, must be the son of Richard and Grace Cutland. This one known son was John Joseph who I have seen records of being married to Mary Warner, the daughter of Speaker of the House of Burgess, Augustine Warner and wife Mary Towneley. Do you have information concerning this connection? I am desperately trying to get to the facts concerning this family and if it is a true connection to my Hawkins line. John and Mary's son, Augustine Hawkins was the father of Flora Hawkins who married Christopher Columbus Choate. If you can help me with information regarding this, I would be greatly appreciative.
Thank you so much for your hard work especially with Find A Grave research. Is it all right if I use your research and photo of the Church and cemetery where Richard Hawkins is buried?

Photo Use
May I use a copy of your photo of the then existing structures where 17 individuals were buried?

Thank you, Audrey

RE: Re: Mabel Talvas
Hi sweetheart

So good to hear from you, cousin. I am related to roger de Montgomery and Mabel Talves through firstly, my Lockyers from Branscombe, Devon, and through Newtons, and then Cromwells....most specifically Ralph de Cromwell V.
There is an excellent family tree online I've been using to find out about all these Royals that go further back than I could have imagined.
I'll be heading to England and France this summer to see some of Rogers properties, and his grave hopefully. There is a picture online of his tomb at Shrewsbury, and we will be staying near there for a week this summer.

Isn't this amazing? What a blessing this research has been for me.

I live in Ontario, Canada. I'm a school teacher.
My dad is about your age. He would be your cousin as well. He and my mom are coming with my sister and I to England. It will be there first trip across the pond. I'm excited about seeing their faces when they see all of the things I've seen and have been telling them about for years.

Well should go hon...getting late.
Talk to you soon,
Valerie

mabel talvas
I noticed your message and flowers for Mabel Talvas on Find a Grave. She is my 30th great grandmother - so we must be related somehow if she is also your great grandmother.
Would love to connect.

Hello from an American cousin!
I say cousin because I believe we would be cousins?

I've been doing research on my family for a while now and decided to start on my Mothers side of the family. That led me to the Hawkins line and Andrew Hawkins and then Osbert DeHawking III.

Andrew Hawking is my 14th great-grandfather. Osbert DeHawking III is my 16th great-grandfather.

I took a shot in the dark and googled Osbert DeHawking III's name and came across your site. It seems in my research that England has more records that you'd find over here.... especially here in the American South.

I will do my best to continue researching and hopefully help you one day!

Thanks for all you've done.
