Hi all, I hope you can help. I know Thamzin Hawkins( b 1825 Ashbrittle) married Henry Stone( b 1828 Langford) abt 1850, they had several children but im interested in her first born,James . He was born abt 1848 Hochworthy Devon.I know very little about him but believe he married Alice Cameron Hone in Madras in 1877. They had a son Ernest b Madras 1883.What was he doing in madras ?Thamzin,s parents were William Hawkins b 1793 Ash and Mary Bailey. As James was born before his mother married what name did he assume ? Hawkins or Stone. Any info on this family would be wounderful.
Many Thanks Sarah

Thanks guys,
I thought he might be James Hawkins, his mothers name is spelt several ways which is more confussing, but thanks for you quick response.
Best Wishes Sarah

Yes I believe he was a Rev in India and died in Kent in 1918. But his name has changed again to Stone, and it looks like he was born James Hawkins.

Well, you have your answer - not sure why you asked the reason he was in madras!! Can I ask again what name he married under?

James Hawkins died 1918 in Tonbridge Kent . So why has his name changing from Hawkins to Stone and what happened to his wife Alice C Hone and son Ernest b Madras 1883. I am getting confussed .
