Hawkins DNA Newsletter

For ten years (2003-2013) Phil Hawkins published on the internet a Newsletter for our Hawkins DNA group. I found myself wanting to share an article that I wrote for the Newsletter with someone with whom I was chatting. But looking at the list was a bit overwhelming. I have no clue which year I wrote it. So this blog post is a place to put titles with a link so that we can link to various articles that may be of interest to anyone. Below is my list of some of the articles written about FG#1. If you have a few minutes, read some of the articles and send me the name of the article and the link to the newsletter in which it is found.

FG #1 articles in Hawkins DNA Newsletter:

Gene Hawkins and Marsha Hawkins Moses with mini reunion at the Golden Lamb in Lebanon Ohio

Hawkins DNA

I hope that this blog will be a place for researchers who have interest in the Hawkins surname can chat and present thoughts about the particular line of Hawkins families that they look at.

Phil Hawkins maintains a wonderful website that you do not want to miss!

I think that you will find Phil’s site more organized and easier to navigate than a blog tends to be. However, use the search box on this blog to zero in on posts that are about your DNA group. I will try to label each post with the DNA group that is being discussed unless I think that it is a post that is relevant to everyone.

This blog is not meant to replace Phil's site. This blog is more like Phil's more informal newsletter where you are invited to chat about ideas you have about your Hawkins research regardless of which DNA group you match.

I also encourage you to read the archived messages on the Hawkins mail list. Better yet, you may want to subscribe if you are not already a subscriber. The Hawkins mail list is a rootsweb mail list and has the advantage that many people read the posts and that all of the posts are archived and are fully searchable. I personally have made contact with many people who have given me a great deal of help with my own Hawkins line through that mail list. I do not mean for the blog to replace the mail list either. Instead I mean for this blog to enhance the mail list as I can place photos and maps and illustrations on the blog that give more meaning to the mail list posts. Rootweb mail lists can not accept photos, maps nor illustrations.

Please send me anything that you would want to share with the world about your own Hawkins DNA group. This can include your research that you would want to share. It can include questions that you would want to ask. I will work on this little by little for the next year. Please be patient. I am just like you. I have limited time. I have great interest, but my non-genealogical life limits what I can accomplish. If we find that this format is not helpful, we'll try something else.

I welcome your input! I welcome your criticism! I welcome any editing that you can do for me! Send me your ideas, and we'll work on them together! Many of you are already my good buddies. I look forward to your help in continuing the hard work that Phil has done so far.
