Notes

Note 1

!NOTE: Susan Hawkins, who married Roger Smith on 28 July 1504 at Salisbury Cathedral, Wiltshire, is tentatively identified here as the daughter of Thomas Hawkins . This attribution is based on generational alignment, as Thomas would have been in his 30s when Susan was born , and no other strong candidates in the Hawkins line match both the timeframe and status.

-

The marriage at Salisbury Cathedral suggests a family of established standing, consistent with Thomas’s position within the Nash Court Hawkins line descended from John Hawkins I of Kent .

-

The given name “Susan” is notably rare in the Hawkins family, not appearing again until Suzan Hawkins , the great-granddaughter of Matthew Hawkins . This recurrence may reflect a memorial naming pattern within the extended Hawkins kinship network, further supporting Susan's importance and likely connection to a principal line.

-

This identification remains provisional due to the absence of direct documentary proof but is consistent with available genealogical, chronological, and social context.
