As I posted in my earlier response, I believe Mack Hawkins is from the following line:
1. James Hawkins (b. about 1764 in NC)
2. Joseph W. Hawkins (b. 1811 in MO)
3. James Alvin (b. 1843 in TN)
4. Dillard Hawkins (b. 1868 in TN)
5. Mack Hawkins (b. about 1885)
Be sure not to confuse Joseph W. who lived in Overton County with Joseph W.'s uncle Joseph Hawkins who lived in Jackson County.The elder Joseph was born in 1765 in NC, a younger brother to James.He was very active in and around Jackson County, holding political positions and was instrumental in laying out the town of Gainesboro, TN.
Hope this helps you!
