Dvr. George Thomas Hawkins
14th Bde Ammunition Col.
from:Faversham, Kent, England
(d.8th June 1918)
I recently found George Hawkins's death details via Ancestry. His only child, Theresa, was my grandmother. George's wife Edith Dane died 6 months later in December 1918, and Theresa was adopted by Edith's sister Emma Lufkin.
I have not been able to locate George's war records, I suspect they were destroyed like so many others in WW2, so have no evidence that he ever saw his daughter Theresa.
George was listed as a driver in RFA 14th Bde Ammunition Col. I would like to know where and what the 14th Bde was up to around the time of George's death.
