  • Wife of Benjamin Hawkins.  She is Abigail Hawkins in the household of Benjamin in the 1850 Utah census living in Davis County (Ancestry.com index lists the family name as "Hankins" but on the original census sheet it is clearly "Hawkins.")  The date of her marriage to Benjamin is unknown.  She may have crossed the plains under the surname Stephens.  On 8 April 1851 she was Abigail Hawkins when she received a Patriarchal Blessing at Salt Lake City.  Additional research is needed to discover the name of the pioneer company with which she crossed the plains.
