Hopgood - Hampshire

[Lisa8thompson]

Trying to trace back a family line, but would love some help!

°5th Great Grandparents
Jacob Hopgood (no dates found)
     Married Martha Hopgood (no maiden name found)

Children:
°4th great grandparents
Martha Hopgood 1801-1850
      Married John Sweetman

James Hopgood 1790-??
Jacob Hopgood 1805-??

°6th great grandparents
Jacob Hopgood
     Married Sarah Smith

This is pretty much all I have! I have info in the Sweetman line, it's the Hopgood I'm searching.

Thanks x

Oh! I would assume that this is Jacob senior due to him being 70 years old. Could he be living with one of his children?
