Biography
She was a teacher who never married.
She appears in the 1900 census living at home with her parents. It says that she was born in September 1889.
In 1910 Census she is living with her brother Thomas (who has named one of his daughters after her)
Thomas Hopkins Head M 28 New Jersey Mary Hopkins Wife F 30 New York Mary Hopkins Daughter F 9 New Jersey Lauretta Hopkins Daughter F 7 New Jersey Anna Hopkins Daughter F 5 New Jersey Eugene Hopkins Son M 3 New Jersey Thomas Hopkins Son M 0 New Jersey Lauretta A Hopkins Sister F 26 New Jersey
I am pretty sure this is her. The death date is 1879 but her age in censuses is all over the map. In the 1900 census her father says she was born in 1889? and is 20 years old.
