Talk:William Dunkin (judge)

Son Edward
I have read in Google Books, snippet view of vol. 4 of William Hickey's memoirs, of an epileptic son Edward. This may or may not be the Edward Dunkin who in April 1789 was admitted to Queens' College, Cambridge. This is right on the time when his father could have arrived in England. If not, something of a coincidence. Charles Matthews (talk) 09:42, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Strikingly an Edward Dunkin of Bushfoot is known, marrying a Bostonian around then. He was the father of Benjamin Faneuil Dunkin. Charles Matthews (talk) 09:46, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

On the other hand the William Hickey book suggests Edward the son sailed the other way. Charles Matthews (talk) 15:59, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
