AN ENGLISH MOMENT by Jack Williams has thses lines in it
"Sixteen generations since the brothers went to sea
Richard fought the Spanish fleet off Plymouth and Torquay
John set sail for America in a cold Southampton rain
And though it’s been four hundred years
their blood runs in my veins."
The only relatives I can find with those names are Richard and John Hawkins, and whilst they were not actually brothers, but father and son, I wonder if this would be worth including in a Pop Culture heading...— Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.35.219.101 (talk • contribs) 14:30, 10 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
