He was born in 1884 in Crakehall. I've been doing lots of research into the Hauxwell/Hawkswell side of my family recently and my Dad and Grandad (Leslie Hawkswell) wondered whether Hannah Bayles Tallentire Hauxwell was a relation to us. The reason why we thought so is because my Dad's auntie May looks very much like Hannah Hauxwell and both were born within a few years of each other. Just wondering whether anyone has any more information on Hannah’s tree or relatives? She became quite well known for her little adventures to America and around the world and the likeness between her and my Dad’s auntie is really spooky. I haven’t managed to fill in some of my Hauxwell/Hawkswell marriages so there still might be a chance that I’ve missed out some valuable information along the way. If anyone has any information I would be very grateful. Thanks, Jeni Hawkswell.
