==Biography==
Hawkes was born on January 25 or 26, 1605, to John Hawke and an unknown mother, in Hingham, Norfolk, England. He was then baptized January 26, 1605, at St. Andrews Church, Higham, Norfolk.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/d/u/n/Jon-A-Duncan-IL/WEBSITE-0001/UHP-1682.html )〕 Hawkes immigrated from England with the Winthrop Fleet, led by John Winthrop, in 1630.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://freepages.family.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ahfa/adam.htm )〕 On arrival in America Hawkes first settled in Charlestown in the Massachusetts Bay Colony. In Charlestown he worked as a husbandman, holding the offices of Cow Commissioner and Surveyor. After getting married and selling his property in Charlestown in 1635, Hawkes then moved to the wilderness in Lynn (now known as Saugus) to cultivate the land and start farming. The Hawkes family were the first known settlers of this area.〔 The first log cabin that Hawkes built came to be known as "Close Hill".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://familysearch.org/eng/Library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titledetails&titleno=156756&disp=Hawkes+talks )〕
Hawkes died on March 13, 1672, in Saugus.
