The Sparrowhawk Family in America, 1790
The Sparrowhawk family in America is considered to be separate and distinct from the Spark(e)s family, but in view of the fact that the two families had the same origin in England--that the name Spark(e)s is derivation of the name Sparrowhawk--THE SPARKS FAMILY ASSOCIATION would be happy to welcome as members all who are interested in the history and genealogy of the Sparrowhawk family.
A Century of Population Growth lists Sparrowhawk separately from Sparks, so the name is not included in the analysis of the distribution of the name Sparks in America in 1790, as appears on pages 3 and 4 of The Quarterly.
