    Notes:

    "My father's Name was Thomas Hawley, Citizen and Gunmaker, London in the Parish of Olive Old Jewry at the corner next Coleman Street and Lothbury, My mother was Frances Malin of a village called Paultis Perry (alias Potters Perry), Northamptonshire, by whom he had ten children, five sons and five daughters, whose names being worked on a sampler were Thomas and Anna, Thomas and Mary, Frances, Susannah and Sarah, Joseph and Thomas and little Benjamin, - Thomas and Frances had these ten.

    I was born on the 5th day of the 8th month called October in the year of our Lord 1703, Old Style. My Mother departed this life on the 10th day of the 7th Mo. (called September), in the year 1714, old style, in the 52nd year of her age and was buryed in the grave yard belonging to the Parish church of Olive Old Jewry. My father lived in widowhood until sometime in the Month called January 1717-18. My sister Mary kept his house during his widowhood. He departed this life in the month aforesaid in the 63rd year of his age and was buryed in the same grave with my mother. My sister Mary being left whole and sole Executrix of his last will and Testament, she put me out apprentice to John Hosey of Channel Row, Westminster, citizen and gunmaker of London, with whom I staide until the month called July 1722. Then I left him and went on board the Britania, snow, John Head master, bound for Madeira and Philadelphia. We had a long passage and suffered much for want of Provisions and water. We were becalmed some weeks and several died for want. I think it was reckoned when we made the land of Virginia we had not eight pounds of Bread and Beef on board for sixty persons. Our captain went with some hands ashore to seek water and provisions but could get no water to bring off, but shot four hogs, a sheep and hawk, the hawk I had for my share. We buried four at sea, one upon Cape May, another at Philadelphia who died coming up the river. William Passmore and Tertulain Johnson were two of the Passengers that I had some knowledge of. I stayed on board till the vessel was loaded and went out, and then myself and two or three more of the servants whose time were not disposed of were put on board another ship belonging to the same owners, where we staid till she was loaded and went out, which was some time in January, 1722--23. Myself and another, which was all that was left of the servants, was sent down to George Ashbridge's in Goshen, for him to dispose of our time. There I had a severe fit of sickness and kept my bed for two weeks. Mary Ashbridge was as good to me as if I had been her own son. Some time in the 12th month (called February) it pleased the Lord to Restore me to my health again and about the latter end of the first month (called march) 1723, I came to live with John Willis, the younger, in Thornbury Township, where I staide till my 5 years of servitude was expired, which was the 12th of the 9th Mo. (called November) 1727."
