Thomas Hawkins (27 June 1766 – 17 January 1850) was a Church of Ireland priest in Ireland[1] during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.[2]

Hawkins was born in County Kildare and educated at Trinity College, Dublin.[3] He was Rector of Dunkerrin in the Diocese of Kildare, and in 1807 he was appointed a chaplain to The Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. He became Dean of Clonfert in 1812, and held the post[4] until his death.[5]
