My name is Georgina Jackson and I started this Website in 2004 and have found many family and made quite a few friends. I have been able to find lots of Family Photos of Family I had never seen before, I do think that all of the
family have found this very interesting. It is very hard work but feel that it will be very worthwhile in the end sharing my recent wonderful journey into my ancestry.
I am dedicating this to my children and grand children so that they will know more about their roots. This is because I knew very little about the Hawkins family other than my father, George Hawkins, came to Nottingham before I was born. He married my mother Bessie Pollard in 1937. They had four Daughters - myself, Georgina, Patricia, Valerie Jean and Angeline. They also had an only son, Peter who sadly died when he was a few months old.
We lived at 6 Bastion Street Radford Nottingham. We attended the Forster Street School Juniors and then Radford Blvd Secondary School. Upon leaving School I went to work at Vanns Hosiery Factory on Garden Street in Radford. I met John Stuart Jackson in 1958 and we Married in St Peters Church Radford April the 2nd 1960. We have three children - Lawrence, Andrew and Deborah.
MY BELOVED SISTER, VALERIE GRIFFITHS (NEE HAWKINS) DIED SUDDENLY October 3rd 2004 Dearly loved wife of John Griffiths, and Mother of Ian, John, Anthony, and Neil. Valerie was a very special person, always thinking of others - 'Always making friends wherever she went' - Stuart. She will be so sadly missed by us all. Our deepest sorrow for husband John and family - Georgina, Stuart and family - Angeline, Lawrence, and family - Patricia and family. Good Night and God Bless, my Angel sister with Love Georgina xxx
