Dawkes, Henry, an ancient planter, came to Virginia in 1608, and in 1632 his "son and heir apparent," William Dawkes of Varina, patented lands due him for the personal adventure of his father, and for a subscription to the stock of the London Company, paid by his father. [1][2]
Henry and Mary Dyke"Dawkes", (brother & sister) each invested 25 pds and came on the ship, "2nd Supply" arriving in Jamestown in October 1608.

Mary married William Leigh, of Leigh High, Cheshire, as soon as she arrived in Virginia. There were earlier Dyke/Leigh marriages in Cheshire. Richard Dyke (Daux) was Captain of Foot in London and he sent his son, Walter "Daux" to Virginia.
In 1608, Henry Dawkes & his brother-in-law William Leigh, both of London, took a bill of adventure from London Company, & settled at Varina in 1632, which was for a long period the county seat of Henrico County.[4]
Henry "Dawkes" received the first patent of land in present Henrico Co., Virginia, on Two Mile Creek, NW of the James River, south of Powhattan's Tree. It was 250 acres in a neck of land commonly called the Verinas. abutting easterly upon a creek known as two mile Creek, and thence extending westerly towards the land of Thomas Parker.
His son, Henry Jr., born in 1602, came to Charles City County, Va. in 1635, age 33, after the death of his father. Henry Jr. went to York County, the area that became St. Peters Parish, New Kent Co., Virginia.
Thomas Dykes (Dykes-8) has been removed as his father. Mary Gray Radcliffe (Radcliffe-106) has been removed as his mother. There seems to be no evidence of a connection.
A more likely candidate for his father would be Edward Dawkes of London who had a son Henry Dawkes (birth and baptism in 1579): https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NLFP-S9B

In any case, I have removed Sarah Newman as wife of Henry, because her marriage record clearly says she married William.
