Heraldic/Genealogical Details:
Hawkins of Nash Court, co. Kent, England - Sir Thomas Hawkins of Nash (1548-1617), son of Thomas Hawkins (d. 1587), son of Matthew Hawkins, a descendant of John Hawkins of Nash (fl. 1413), who was son of Andrew Hawkins of Holderness, co. Yorkshire - Argent on a saltire sable five fleurs-de-lis or. Crest: On a mount vert a hind lodged or.
Note: The origin of the arms is possible derived from the following expedition, the saltire being used as a scaling ladder, and the fleurs-de-lis being on the standard of France, which was taken from the castle of Mauconseil: “when the French King, John, was a prisoner in England, the King of Navarre declared war against the kingdom of France, and collected men-at-arms from all parts, for he paid them largely out of the treasures he had amassed. The Navarrois took the towns and castles of Creil-upon-Oise, Herielle, and Mauconseil; after the taking of the Castle of Mauconseil, it was garrisoned with three hundred men, under the command of Rasigois, of Derry, an Irishman; Franklin and Hawkins, two squires of England, A.D. 1358.”
