Note 1: The accuracy of any ancestral traces is only as good the data available.
Note 2: The number of ancestors (tracing only parent to parent) doubles every generation. If you go back 10 generations (8th great grand-parents) there are 1,024, go back 20 generations (18th great grand-parents) there are 1,048,576, go back 30 generations (28th great grand-parents) there are 1,073,741,824, go back 40 generations (38th great grand-parents there are 1,099,511,627,776. It is said that if you are of European descent that you are probably descended from Charlemagne, if you compare the numbers above to the number of people living in Europe in the 700’s it is obvious that this statement is probably true. The challenge

is to be able to trace your family tree back to Charlemagne. As of July 2012 the US Census Bureau estimates the current world population to be 7,000,000,000+.

The below is based on a genealogy of the Hawkes family that I received from my uncle Raymond Ford. I have updated it to contain more recent data.
Adam Hawkes born in England about 1608 died in Saugus, Mass. 1/13/1671. He married first Mrs. Ann (Brown) Hutchinson, who died 10/4/1669, and Adam married Sarah Hooper, daughter or William of Reading, Mass., June 1670.
Adam’s widow Sarah married Samuel Wardle (last name is probably Wardwell), 1/9/1672 in Andover, Mass. Samuel was executed as a witch 9/22/1692, and Sarah was also tried and condemned and held prisoner for a long time, but was freed at the time of the general delivery.
The family tradition is that Adam paddled down the Saugus River to the large grant of land given him by the English King, from Charleston, Mass, where he had been living several years, and where Ann had been admitted to the church. He built a log cabin which burned sometime after, and Adam went across the road and built another.
Adam left a will, in which he divided his property between his three children, his grandson Moses, and the four sons and daughters of his first wife, and his second wife. The records aren’t exactly clear as to how many children Adam had, but at least three are known. Through his daughter Susanna, Adam became the ancestor of a number of distinguished men, such as Oliver Wendell Holmes, Philips Brooks, and John Adams, President of the United States.
Children of Adam Hawkes and Ann (Hutchinson) Hawkes:
John, twin, born 1633 died 8/15/1694, married Rebecca Maverick4/3/1658. He married second Sarah Cushman 4/11/1661.

Susannah, twin, born 1633 married William Cogswell 1650.
Children of Adam Hawkes and Sarah (Hopper) Hawkes:
Sarah, born 6/1/1671, married Francis Johnson 2/1/1693 at Andover.
John Hawkes, son of Adam and Ann, married Rebecca Maverick 4/3/1658. Rebecca was the daughter of Moses and Remember (Allerton) Maverick, and it is through the father of Remember, Isaac Allerton, that all descendants of John Hawkes have a Mayflower line. Rebecca died 11/4/1659 and 4/11/1661 John married Sarah Cushman, daughter of Thomas and Mary (Allerton) Cushman. Mary was another daughter of Isaac Allerton.
Children of John Hawkes and Rebecca (Maverick) Hawkes:
Moses born 1659, died 1/1/1709, married Margaret Cogswell 1698.
Children of John Hawkes and Sarah (Cushman) Hawkes:
Susannah born 1662, died 11/30/1675.
Adam born 1664, died 1691, married Elizabeth -------------.
Anna born 1666, died 11/30/1675.
John born 1668, married at least twice, -- nor sure of death.
Rebecca born 1670, died 11/30/1675.
Thomas born 1673, died 1722, married Sarah Haven 2/16/1702.

Mary born 1675, married Nathaniel Goodhue of Ipswich 11/28/1698.
Ebenezer born 1676, died 12/9/1766, married Elizabeth Cogswell, marriedMrs. Sarah Bassett Newhall married Ruth (Philips) Graves.
Ebenezer Hawkes son of John and Sarah (Cushman) Hawkes, born 1676, died 12/9/1766. Married first Elizabeth Cogswell 6/16/1701, daughter of John and Margaret (Gifford) Cogswell, born 8/1/1677 and died 6/16/1718. He married second Sarah (Bassett) Newhall 5/13/1719, daughter of William and Sarah (Hood) Bassett born 12/5/1676 and died 3/27/1732. Ebenezer married third Ruth (Philips) Graves 11/9/1732 of Boston born 1686 and died 1/15/1670. Ebenezer was a blacksmith and storekeeper; he owned land in Marblehead where he settled and also in Windham, Maine. It was his grandsons who removed to Windham, along with other residents of Marblehead, and became settlers, and from whom most of the Maine Hawkes are descended. I do not feel that we have a complete list of Ebenezer’s children, but in his will only three are mentioned.
Children of Ebenezer Hawkes and Elizabeth (Cogswell) Hawkes:
Ebenezer born 7/14/1702, died 1742, married Anna Breed 1725.
Elizabeth born 4/24/1704 married Joseph Griffen.
Samuel born 5/12/1706, died 1772, married Philadelphia Estes 1727.
Samuel Hawkes son of Ebenezer and Elizabeth (Cogswell) Hawkes, born 5/12/1706, died 1772. Married Philadelphia Estes 4/28/1727, daughter of John and Hanna (Bassett) Estes, who were Quakers. Philadelphia’s brother William was grandfather to Lydia Estes who married Isaac Pinkham and became founder of the

Schaffner/Ford Family Genealogy
Lydia Pinkham Company. I have been told that Philadelphia was a Quaker preacher, which may account for the queerness of this line. Something is wrong, which I cannot account for. It was a set rule that children always named their first son for their father, the first daughter was named for either father’s mother or the wife’s, and while Samuel had a daughter Philadelphia, it is not carried out in any of his children’s lines. Philadelphia apparently died about 1740, as the younger children’s births occur so much later that he must have married a second time of which we have no record.
Children of Samuel Hawkes and Philadelphia (Estes) Hawkes:
Samuel birth unknown died 1756. Left a will in which he left to his sisterPhiladelphia all his “Indoor Household movables together with 13 pound6:8 pieces Lawful money”. Also mentions his sister Hannah and his brotherJohn.
Philadelphia birth unknown died 10/13/1787 recently found in anunpublished Quaker diary, kept by Mrs. Pratt.

Sarah alive in 1766.
John Hawkes son of Samuel and Philadelphia (Estes) Hawkes born 1736 was alive in 1825 mentioned in son’s will, married Jerusha Merriam 12/7/1761 supposed to be the daughter of Theophilus and Abigail (Ramsell) Merriam, but as she has no child by either name I think it is an error, especially so as the above named Merriam’s lived in Concord, Mass. and in the death record of Jerusha’s daughter Esther Shillaber, she gives her mother’s birth place as Walpole. Her death record has never been found either. John was a cordwainer or leatherworker.
Children of John Hawkes and Jerusha (Merriam) Hawkes:
Samuel born 4/19/1762.
Hannah born 10/30/1763 married Joseph Erving 1791.

He was with an organized party of men. He got as far as Delnot, Colorado and struck it rich. He kept several parchment diaries as he traveled over the miles. When he returned to Boston, he visited his daughter Sarah Helen. He brought back gold beads, a gold lover’s knot pin and other jewelry. He hired a suite of rooms at a Boston hotel as he claimed he was used to space and couldn’t be comfortable in a room at his daughter’s home. He also asked the hotel to get a goat as he was used to goat’s milk.

Frederick Schaffner born 1/3/1918, died 3/14/2008, married 2/6/1944 Harriet Helen Ford born 10/5/1921, died 5/21/1979. At the time of Frederick Schaffner death in 2008 there were four children, seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren; who are not listed as they are all still living.
Frederick Schaffner was the son of Ernest Stanley Schaffner and Catherine Frances Murphy (also seen listed as Mary Catherine Fogerty). Her birth name was Mary Catherine Fogerty. She was adopted by her aunt and uncle, John and Margaret Murphy, her name was changed to Catherine Frances Murphy. I had her adopted mother listed as Margaret O’Rielly, from her marriage information it is listed as Margaret Donlearey. Also have seen some indication her birth parents might have been John Fogerty and Bridget Ryan. A certified copy of her death transcript lists her parents as John P. Murphy (adopted father?) and Bridget (birth mother?).

New England to Nova Scotia migration in the 1760’s
I have seen that several of our ancestors on the Schaffner side of the family relocated from New England to Nova Scotia in the 1700’s I had thought perhaps they were “Loyalist” however the below story shows that they were most likely part of a migration to Canada. Family names that are shown as being born in New England and dying in Nova Scotia: Allen, Baker, Balcom, Benjamin, Bishop, Bradish, Brigham, Bullard, Church, Copp, Godfrey, Hamilton, Hardy, Hurd, Morse, Parker, Saunders, West, Whitman, Woodbury.
"1760 - 'New London, Connecticut and vicinity contributed liberally to the flood of migration into Nova Scotia, which set in shortly after the expulsion of the Acadians in 1755. The Government encouraged New Englanders to occupy the lands left vacant by the deportation of the French population (to Louisiana). In 1759 after the fall of Quebec, a committee of five prominent citizens was sent to inspect the Acadian country. One of these was Major Robert DENISON. The committee reported favorably, and in a short time more that 6,000 people left New England, bound for the new 'promised land' of Nova Scotia. Among these were Samuel COPP (1704-ca.1774) and his brother John COPP (sons of Jonathan and Catherine (LAY) COPP), and Major DENISON himself, who despite his more than three score years did not hesitate to follow the course he had recommended to his neighbors. Samuel COPP and John COPP received patents or grants of about 700 acres each in the Township of Horton, Kings County, N.S. This county lay in the heart of the Acadian country and had been almost completely depopulated by the removal of the French inhabitants. In Horton was located the village of Grand Pre', immortalized in Longfellow's EVANGELINE. Another one of its villages, 'Horton Corner,' is now Kentville, the county seat. Samuel and John COPP arrived probably about the year 1761.' "Other's who removed to Nova Scotia about this time included: the family of Sylvanus and Ann (AVERY) GRIFFIN-MINER; the family of Handley CHIPMAN, son of John and Elizabeth (HANDLEY) CHIPMAN; the family of Hobart MASON (1722-

Vinton5 Barnes (Benjamin4, John3, Peter2, Thomas1) born Hingham, Massachusetts, 21 October 1764, Came to Jaffrey in young manhood and in June 1784, he was a member of the Jaffrey Training Band and was recorded as fifer. He married in Jaffrey 11 January 1789 Betsy Trull, and probably soon after removed to Vermont or Canada.
John5 Barnes (John4, John3, Peter2, Thomas1) born in Hingham, Massachusetts, 2 October 1749; married first 16 February 1772 Martha born in Hanover, Massachusetts 11 December 1750 died 30 December 1780 daughter of William and Martha (Mann) Curtis.

He acquired this property in 1781, together with a dwelling house, a grist mill and saw mill and other buildings
The information below can be found in “History of Jaffrey, New Hampshire Volume I Narrative” copyright 1937, on page 362.
The Bailey Mills
The third saw mill in Jaffrey was evidently on the Mountain Stream in the section now know as Mineral Spring Village, or Ballou City. Abraham Bailey, a millwright, came from Tewksbury, Massachusetts, about 1773, and his work aside from building a cabin for shelter was in building a saw and grist mill in the rear of his dwelling on the site of the present Mountain Shade House of Bernard Caldwell &

Son. Here he sawed lumber for the meeting-house in 1774 and 1775, and for other houses and barns in the vicinity. But building mills was more to his liking than operating them and so in 1779 he sold a half interest in his mill to David Beard of Wilmington, Massachusetts, and removed to Reading, Vermont, where he built with his brother-in-law, George Betterly, the first mill in that place. In 1781 he sold the remaining interest in his Jaffrey mill to John Barnes of Hingham, Massachusetts, who soon after also acquired the former Beard interest from Bazaleel Bennett of Shrewsbury, Massachusetts. In1789 the mill ownership passed to Benjamin Dole, together with a pew in the Meeting-house, a dwelling house and other buildings.

The Jaffrey Connection Part 2
The information below can be found in “History of Jaffrey, New Hampshire Volume II Genealogies” copyright 1937, on page 718.
John Spofford, who came from Yorkshire, England, in 1638, in the company of Rev. Ezekiel Rogers, was the ancestor of all of the Spoffords and Spaffords in America. The company obtained a grant on what is now known as the North Shore of Massachusetts Bay, extending from the seashore to Cochichawuk, now Andover, a territory from which came a large portion of the early settlers of Jaffrey. His name appears on the record of the first division of lands into homestead lots in 1643, on Bradford Street, near the center of the present town of Rowley. He married Elizabeth daughter of Thomas Scott of Ipswich, Massachusetts. He lived for about thirty years in what is now Rowley, and in 1669 removed to “Spofford”s Hill” in the west part of the town and became the first settler in the section later known as Georgetown. Among his descendants are said to be not only all the Spoffords, but also most of the Kimballs, Hopkinsons, Parkers, Peabodys, Woods and Adamses, all prominent names in the settlement of Jaffrey and Rindge. He acquired a good share of wealth for the times, he died Rowley in 1678 aged sixty-six. Children: (1) Elizabeth born 1646, (2) John born 1648, (3) Thomas born 1650, (4) Samuel born 1653, (5) Hannah born 1655, (6) Mary born 1656, (7) Sarah born 1658 died in infancy, (8) Sarah born 1662 married Richard Kimball, (9) Francis born 1665.

The below story is about Mary Norris wife of Isaac Allerton:
Mary and Isaac were among the Pilgrims to flee England to Leiden, Holland for religious reasons. They married there in 1611 and she was given the unoffical title of "Maid of Newberry" while living in Holland. In 1622, Mary and Isaac embarked on the Mayflower with 102 passengers, including three pregnant women. Mary was one of them. About a month after they arrived at Plymouth in the "New World", she gave birth to a stillborn child. She was still aboard ship in Cape Cod Harbor while houses were being built. Mary died about a month later.
Mary is a descendant of:
