This Henry HAWKINS is my gr-gr-grandfather - the Mary A, is Mary Lorance

Now......
"Next door" in:
Dwelling/264 Family/269 is found:
Mathews, Benjamin, age 44, hh, m:12yrs, b:IN, Father b:NC, mother b:NC

Hawkins, Flossie, age 6, niece, b:IN, father b:IN, mother b:IN
Hawkins, Green(?) B., age 51, boarder, b:KY, father b:KY, mother b:KY
WHAT, if any, is the connection?? Was Sarah Mathews a HAWKINS by birth, is
Green HAWKINS her brother ???
OR......was Benjamin once married to a HAWKINS ???
Does anyone have any further information about any of the people in these
two households???
Thanks,
