Bio and Links
I live in Edina, MN and winter in San Diego, CA.
I'm an amateur genealogist working on the following families:

Ashmore Eng> 1634 MD> 1800 GA> 1880 AL

Stratton Eng> 1630's NJ> PA> MI> IA> MS

Mulloy Ire> VA> MS

Reed ?> AL

Hopkins Eng> 1630'sRI> 1800NY> 1860IA.

!!!!!!! BRICK WALL BREAKING NEWS !!!!!!!

I finally found John Hopkins b @ 1800 NY as the father of William Henry Hopkins b 1838 Erie Co., NY. So the search continues for his mother. AND now I need the parents of John Hopkins! Does it ever end?

I'm looking for the parents of my William Henry Hopkins b1838 Springville, Erie Co., NY. He married in 1864 in Jackson Co., IA Catherine "Kate" Bryant Moore b1846 Schenectady, the adopted daughter of George & Adelia Jane (Horton) Moore of Luzerne, Warren Co., NY and later Nevada, Story Co., IA. William died 1911 in Odebolt, Sac Co., IA. Kate in 1924. This could be a RI Gov Stephen Hopkins 1707-1785, signer of the Declaration of Independence line. Any help greatly appreciated!!!

Haddox Eng> 1600's VA> OH> IA

I have posted hundreds of messages on these families at www.genforum.com
I would love any additional info you might have on them. Thanks, Lee

Hi Lee,
I don't have any info on these families sorry. Since I noticed you're hunting Hopkins I've been keeping an I out for them though. Found an Edward Hopkins in Glenwood today buried with some Helmers, not sure how/if he's part of your group.

My Seelye - Millard - Hopkins Family
It takes to long to try to transfer my information through a second party so I created new records for my two family members. I had thought you were actually related to the people buried in those graves but you don't have any relationship to them and I am actually very fond of these members of my direct family.

My family has been keeping records for almost 200 years now and I am one of the Millard descendants who has taken over the task of keeping up and researching more of the historical records.

It would have been nice of you to transfer over my Deborah Seelye Millard and her mother Mary Amelia Seelye as most of the information you posted on their records did come originally from me.

Hopkins
Lee - when doing some research I see there is a town named Hopkins in the area you are researching have you checked the cemeteries in that area yet?

Lockport
Lee, I didn't look for the John Hopkins house in Lockport as it was pouring rain and I had a husband who didn't want to take the time to search for something I hadn't researched before arriving.

Are you related to Byron Garrett Clark the 1st husband of Electa Seelye? I think I mentioned in a post earlier that I found her grave in the Gasport/Orangeport cemetery when I thought she was buried next to her 1st husband in Rose, Butler, NY. Let me know if you want any of the info and photos.

Millard's in Lockport, NY
Lee - I believe I made a mistake for I added Deborah Hopkins (Seeley/Seelye) Millard to the Gassport Cemetery under Find-A-Grave #109539637
What exactly is the name of that cemetery in Find-A-Graves which is located at the corner of Slayton Settlement Rd & Orangeport Rd in Royalton Centre, NY?

Just returned from a great trip combing through the upstate NY cemeteries. By the way - I found Electa Seelye buried next to her 2nd husband in the above cemetery. I had thought she was buried next to her 1st husband Byron Garrett Clark but she has a tombstone in the Gassport Cemetery.

RE: Ethel Hopkins
It wasn't there though, I created her memorial and took a minute to re-size the photo and got the "Thanks for filling a request" screen when I uploaded it. Really confused me for a minute. lol
