Generation: 1

  1. 1.  William Hopkins was born 6 Nov 1695, East Greenwich, Kent Co., RI (son of Joseph Hopkins and Phebe Unknown); died Abt Dec 1796, West Greenwich, RI.

    Notes:

    The list of children for William & Mary (Tibbetts) Hopkins came from Laura Flebbe's web site (see source notes).

    William married Mary Tibbetts 2 Mar 1726/27, East Greenwich, RI. Mary (daughter of John Tibbetts and Elizabeth Hazard) was born 25 Mar 1707; died Bef Dec 1760. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    I am making an assumption that this marriage of William Hopkins & Mary Tibbetts, of John, belongs to this Mary, because the dates fit her age and locality.

    Children:
    1. Tibbetts Hopkins was born 18 Oct 1727.
    2. Elizabeth Hopkins was born 1729.
    3. Anne Hopkins was born 1732.
    4. Alsey Hopkins was born 1735.
    5. Joseph Hopkins was born 8 Apr 1737.
    6. Henry Hopkins was born 28 Feb 1737/38.
    7. Theodosia Hopkins was born 5 May 1744, West Greenwich, RI.
    8. Avis Hopkins was born 1751.
    9. Eunice Hopkins was born Abt 1753.

    William married Mary Remington 5 Dec 1760, Warwick, RI. Mary (daughter of Thomas REMINGTON, II and Maplet GORTON) was born 17 May 1715, Warwick, Kent Co., RI; died Abt Apr 1806, West Greenwich, RI. [Group Sheet]


Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Joseph Hopkins was born Abt 1670 (son of Thomas Hopkins and Sarah Unknown); died 15 May 1735, East Greenwich, RI.

    Notes:

    Joseph's will, dated 1735, mentions his wife Martha; 6 sons -- Joseph (Jr.), William, Samuel (b. 6 Jan 1704, d. 1790), John, Robert, & Thomas; and 3 daughters -- Phebe (Pitcher), Hannah, & Martha.

    He may have married first to a Phebe Unknown.

    I have estimated the birth years of some of Joseph's children.

    Interestingly, there was another Joseph Hopkins whose will was proved/probated 1 Sept. 1740 at Scituate, RI. He also mentions a wife Martha.

    An online genealogy has his parents as William & Hannah (Andrews) Hopkins of Roxbury, MA. However, the RI Genealogical Register, Vol. 15, p. 303, identifies his parents as Thomas & Sarah. (needs more research)

    Joseph married Phebe Unknown Abt 1694. [Group Sheet]
