This site documents the ancestry of my four grandparents.
Elmer Dennis Hopkins (1894-1980) and Emma Ewers Taylor (1900-1978) lived in Harlan County,
Kentucky during most of their marriage. Elmer was born in Harlan County but his family moved
to Rockcastle County, Kentucky when he was a child. Emma was born and raised in Rockcastle
County. Elmer and Emma had 4 daughters.
John William "Will" McCauley (1875-1959) and Verda Waller Hankins (1882-1942) lived in
Muhlenberg County, Kentucky. Verda was born and raised in Hopkins County, Kentucky. Will
was born as Thomas Jefferson Lanier in Alabama, probably in either Chambers or Randolph
County, and grew up in that general area. Will and Verda had 7 daughters and 4 sons.
Four generations of known surnames in each line are:
Hankins Line - Petty, Goodloe, Thomas, Weeks, Dobyns
Hopkins Line - Howard, Wolfenbarger, Morris, McFarland, Risner, Mark
McCauley Line - Lanier, Bennett, Jackson, Gamble, Smith, Malone, Finney
