Note: Census lists only initials of first and middle names for wife and children. Full names extracted from other records. The ages in the 1880 census record, however, vary from the 1900 by listing Lizzie as age 35, Florence as 6, John age 4, and baby girl age one month. A brief biographical sketch of Kirk Hawes indicates he was elected as a Superior court judge in 1880 and served 12 years and came to Chicago after graduating from Williams Collge in 1864.

All those in household are listed as able to read and write and either single or widowed. Susan is listed as having 0 children and 0 living and Amanda listed with one child, one living.
