Biography
Mary Hopkins was the daughter of William and Mary Hopkins. She married Captain William Lewis in 1644 and died 1673.[1] The Mack Genealogy lists her as being "of Stratford, Connecticut."
Mary Hopkins was probably born ca. 1625 in England.
Her birth is also credited to Hartford, Ct. in 1623. This is probably an error, since her first mention in the Puritan Great Migration is her marriage in 1645. Also since Hartford was not yet settled in 1623.

Lewis-1404 and Hopkins-405 appear to represent the same person because: LNAB is Hopkins. Lewis-1404 has the names backwards. She was the daughter of William Hopkins and wife of William Lewis.
I have now restored the text of the biography, following a change that removed the PGM box and left only "FamilyTree.org" in place of the narrative.
Still, the data fields (LNAB) are likely not in good order. --Gene
