Hawkins in the 1910 Federal Census in Michigan

In the 1910 Federal Census for Michigan, my great-grandmother, Sarah Weed Maloney, Hawkins, is still living in Leoni Township and (I assume) still on Hawkins Road. The Hawkins family is shown on line 37 and consists of: John Hawkins, Sarah, and two children, Harold and Alice.  In a few of the census years women were asked how many children they had had and how many were still alive. Although the printing is somewhat difficult to read, it looks like Sarah had had eight children and six were still living. I have only been aware of six; three with my great-grandfather, Francis Maloney, and three with John Hawkins. Here is the census page:

Here is the other John Hawkins family also living on Hawkins Rd. (line 62)  I am not completely sure what the realtionship between this John H. Hawkins and John W. Hawkins is.  Also listed on line 76 is the McGill family, the family of my grandfather's first wife - Jennie McGill.

Hawkins in the 1900 Federal Census in Michigan

In 1900 my maternal grandfather, Fred Maloney, had left Leoni Township, Mi and returned to Rochester, NY where he was born. We have seen that census record in Rochester here.  His mother, my great-grandmother, Sarah Weed Maloney Hawkins, was still in Leoni Township and she is shown in the 1900 Federal Census in Michigan. This sheet shows a number of families on Hawkins Road in Leoni.  

At line 54 is William and Alice Hawkins. William (Will) was the son of my great-grandmother and was my grandfather's half-brother. The next family (line 57) is the family of William and Celia McGill, the parents of Fred Maloney's first wife, Jennie, who died in 1897.

At line 64 is the family of another William Hawkins. This William Hawkins was born in 1862 in Michigan and it is possible that he may be a brother of John Hawkins, my great-grandmother's husband.

Line 72 is the entry for John Hawkins, my great-grandmother's husband. In addition to my great-grandmother, Sarah, are two of their children, Harold and Alice, my grandfather's half-siblings. I don't know where my grandfather's siblings, Mary Frances and Nelly in 1900 although I suspect that Mary Frances was living in Jackson.

Maloney and Hawkins in the 1880 Federal Census

By 1880, my great-grandfather, Francis Maloney, had died; his wife, Sarah Weed, had remarried and was living in Michigan; my grandfather, Frederick Maloney, was also in Michigan; and my 2nd great-grandmother, Ellen Kearney Maloney, and her family were in Rochester, NY.

Let's first look at the census record for Ellen Maloney who was then living at 105 Allen Street in Rochester (line 32). Ellen Maloney was listed as "head" of household. Edward is listed as a telegraph operator and Thomas is listed as a clerk.

My great-grandfather's brother, Michael Maloney, and his wife, Margaret were living at 56 Marshall Street in Rochester. Michael's occupation is listed as "fancy goods."  The Rochester City Directory for 1880 lists his "fancy goods" shop at 94 State Street.

The other Maloney - my grandfather Frederick - listed in the 1880 Federal Census for Leoni Township, Jackson Co., MI. with his mother, Sarah Weed Maloney Hawkins, his step-father, John Hawkins, and his sisters, Frances and Nelly. The census sheet is difficult to read but the entry at at line 35. For my grandfather, it is difficult to see in his middle initial is a "G" or an "H."
