Notes

Note 1

!Note: Margery Hawkins, daughter of Vicar John Hawkins and Joan Amadas, was likely born around 1490 in Devonshire, possibly in Tavistock. She married at approximately age 16, in 1506, just before or near the time of her father's death . This timing is consistent with customary practices of the period, when daughters—particularly those from clerical or gentry families—were often married in their mid-to-late teens, especially if a parent was aging or near death. Alis’s marriage likely reflects one of Vicar John's final familial responsibilities, securing a match for his daughter and preserving the family’s standing before his passing.
