Biography reproduced from page 277 of the History of Kossuth and Humboldt Counties, Iowa published in 1884:

Jasper H. Hawkins practiced law in Algona, from 1872 until May, 1883. He came to Kossuth county from Jessup, Buchanan county, and while here acquired a large and lucrative practice. He was a well-read lawyer, posted on all questions of jurisprudence, subtle in argument and forcible in logic. He removed to Des Moines, where he has worked up an extensive business, although his advent in the capital city has been of recent date.
