Robert Hopton and Ann are definitely mine. Everything about them is down right.

I also believe Edward to be his brother, but I'm not sure about Richard Hopton. I don't suppose it was a common name in Radnorshire was it?

Now to find the baptisms  ;D

Thank you ever so much Cas!

Kind Regards,
Lisa

Hi Lisa

The Elizabeth Jones who married Edward Hopton was my ggg great grandmother.  She later maried Rees Davies.  Do you know what became of Edward and his two daughters Mary and Elizabeth  by Elizabeth Jones?

Unfortunately I have made no further advances with the Hoptons and don't know how Edward is connected to John, if he is.  Very sorry, Gary
