I intend to create a page for William Kinkead Hopkins (1822-1906), in searching through WikiTree under the William Hopkins entries, I see the following and wonder as background to the William Hopkins Esq. and Mary Unknown created pages? 

Hopkins-1347 William Hopkins, Esq. marriage to UNKNOWN-85980 Mary Unknown

Relationships: None 

Thoughts to allow crafting this old listing and reflect the following as new listing under/as William Kinkead Hopkins married to Mary Jane Baird? 

101142. William Kinkead Hopkins, b. Oc 5, 1822, woolen mill operator in Brown County until 55, then lived at Oswego; m. Oc 14, 47 Mary Jane Baird of Brown County d. June 12, 56—Three children.

The profile manager who created this profile is active now. It would be best if you could consult him with your question. He may know more about the identity of William Hopkins Esq, which is not a likely title for a mill operator.

ETA: which I see you have done in your comment on the profile.
