Hi, Hodding,
Here's a bit more on your ancestors. This is what Charles Henry Pope's
"Pioneers of Massachusetts" says:

HAWK, HAWKS, HAWKES

1658, age about 50 years; his son-in-law Thomas Hutchinson deposed in same case/

his wife; to Frances, Samuel; to Frances, Samuel, Thomas and Edward

The one below might have been a kin, sine he also lived in Lynn. This
is all Pope says about him:

Isaac, Lynn, called to court 29 (10) 1646.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CROSBY

weeks old, came in the Susan and Ellen in April 1635. Settled at Cambridge.

Thomas, Simon and Joseph certain portions 22 (7) 1645. She m. #2 Rev. Wm.
Tompson of Braintree, who gave his consent tot the arrangement.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Hutchinsons all seem to be connected, one way or another, so I'll just
give you everything that Pope says. That's easier for me than trying to sort
out which is the best for you.

Marbury, b. at Alford 20 July, 1691 (Jan's note: This is the date that the
book says but I think it was meant to be "1591." That would make more sense.);
who was destined to take a very significant part in the affairs of the new
country. She wrote numerous addresses or sermons on religious subject in a very
ernest spirit, but presented a number of doctrines quite out of harmony with
those held by the churches of New England; gathered about her a large number of
men, as well as women; placed the ministers and officials of the colony in a
position of embarrassment and opposition to herself; and drew down on herself
and her bro.-in-law, Mr. John Wheelwright, a storm of persecution. She was
banished to Rhode Island, but not there relieved from Pursuit of the Mass.
authorities. To this was added the affliction of Indiam\n atrocities; and she was
killed by the savages in Sept. 1643. Her husband was a businessman of large

(Jan's note: I don't have any direct ancestral connection to the
Hutchinson family........however.....my immigrant ancestor was John Marshall, who
came over in the ship Hopewell, in Sept. 1635, at age 14, and served in the
household of Edward Hutchinson until he reached manhood! I can well imagine
that he witnessed a lot of the action and troubles in this household.)

Wells, Maine. His sentence of banishment was revoked by the Gen. Court in 1644
