Message Board Post:
I am not descended from the Hoppes family but have done some research on them. Jacob and
Adam Hoppes appears in Lincoln County in the 1780's and 90's. They are here for
about 20-30 years and then apparently move away. Adam migrates to the Toe River Valley in
the Appalachian Mountains in present Yancey County by 1820 or so. He died there. I am
not sure where Jacob went. According to one source Adam married a Hannah Rhyne, which has
been a family I have researched. We do not know how this Hannah fits into the family. I
appreciate your response. Keep them on the radar screen and if you ever see how they
might fit into your Habbes/Hoppes family I would appreciate an email.
Thanks, Robert Carpenter
