Language: English

Note: This Lancashire deed references lands “in Houghwyk.” The exact location of this place is uncertain, but it lies in the Croston area. Edward Hawkins appears in Barton, approximately 10.44 miles from Croston, placing him within the immediate regional vicinity of the reference. A possible linguistic parallel exists with the place-name Howick [Howick Cross "plough-lands" in the 1086 Domesday Book], about 15.15 miles from Croston, though this identification remains uncertain. The reference is therefore noted as a potential regional association only. Thomas Tailior may be the son Edward’s fourth cousin twice removed, Simon Taillour / Taylor [~1430 - >1493] born about 1475.
