2B. ISAAC HOPKINS, son of William and Jane Stone Hopkins married
Elizabeth Brown. We have further information of an Isaac Hopkins found
in the Civil War pension record of one James Hopkins, his son. From
that source, we have the following: "This is a copy of the family record
of Isaac Hopkins, Catharine Hopkins born Dec 22, 1823, William Hopkins,
born Sep 14, 1828, Isaac Hopkins Aug 1, 1830, Arthena Elizabeth Hopkins
Apr 13, 1832, George Washington Hopkins born Aug 5, 1834, Joseph W. and
John B. Hopkins born Feb 8 1836, James Abbernath Hopkins mar 18, 1838,
Polly Phonia Hopkins Nov 12, 1839, Philip Stone Hopkins born Dec 12,
1841, Ciphronia Jane Hopkins born Mar 8, 1844, Mary Thessalona Hopkins
b. July 13, 1846. The publication of the family bible is 1817 and there
seems to be no alterations or erasures of the records.
Also from those records we have the following information on James
Abbernath Hopkins: b. Mar 18, 1838 in Lincoln Co, Missouri. He married
Elizabeth Haynes who died in Richwoods Missouri, Oct 3, 1867 during the
birth of his dauthter Elizabeth. They had one other child, Johannah, b.
Oct 5, 1862. Then he married Nancyh Ann Brown May 9, 1871 ar Richwoods
Missouri. They had 4 children: Homer born Mar 29, 1872, Mary b. Aug 24,
1876, Sarah b. Mar 24, 1880, and James b. Mar 17, 1883. James Abbernath
Hopkins was a private in the Civil War on the Union side. After the war
he resided in Washington, Franklin and Jefferson counties in Missouri.
His final address was Maupin, Missouri which we believe is near
Richwoods. He died Feb 23, 1915 and is buried in the Brown Grave Yard,
Franklin County. Missouri. We like any further information on this
Isaac to prove or disprove that he was a son of our William of 1770.
