Biography

Birth date from William and Ann Buser family tree from 1966, assembled by descendants of George Washington Hopwood and Mary Elizabeth Williams. The date on the Find a Grave record is incorrect; the monument says 1834 and 1831 puts her birth too closely between sisters Julia Ann and Mariah.

In 1850, Elizabeth Hopwood (16) lived in Oregon, Ogle, Illinois, United States with her parents ^[1]
