520			_a"Hawkins-Davison Houses, Frederica, St. Simons Island, Georgia" by Cate and Fairbanks is a historical account published in the mid-20th century, specifically reprinted from the Georgia Historical Quarterly in 1956. The book primarily explores the archaeological excavations and historical significance of the Hawkins-Davison houses located in the once-thriving community of Frederica, Georgia, an early British outpost established in the 18th century. The narrative delves into the origins of Frederica, detailing its foundation by James Edward Oglethorpe in 1736 as a military and civilian settlement aimed at safeguarding British territories from Spanish incursions. It documents the lives of two significant settlers, Dr. Thomas Hawkins and Samuel Davison, whose conflicting reputations in the community—Hawkins as the town doctor with a controversial character, and Davison as a well-liked tavern owner—shape the story of the houses built adjacent to each other. The authors present findings from archaeological digs that uncovered the foundations of their homes, revealing insights into colonial life, community dynamics, and the eventual decline of the town following the disbandment of the British regiment stationed there. Through an integration of historical documents and excavation results, the book paints a vivid picture of life in 18th-century Georgia, underscoring the cultural and historical legacy of the Frederica settlement.
