Francis Lister Hawks graduated from the University of North Carolina in 1815 and later became a noted priest and bishop in the Episcopal Church. He is perhaps best known for his two-volume 1857 history of North Carolina and other published works. His interest in history was not confined to North Carolina and he was one of the founders of the New-York Historical Society. - NRHP, 6 December 1971
