WINFIELD SCOTT HOPPER, Decatur Co., TN
Someone please help me straighten out my info on the family of Winfield Scott Hopper (1847-1918), Decatur Co., TN.The information I have seems flawed.He married Madeline Shadrick about 1867 in Decatur Co.She had a child, Sylvania Margaret Hays (1864-1947).Supposedly she was married to Humphrey Jim Wallace and had children:James (1863), Ada (1865), Robert (1868), and Hattie (1870).In the 1880 Census, Winfield's wife is Mary Jane (1845) and children, Ada, Robert, and Hattie are listed as Hoppers.No sign of Sylvania Margaret Hays.She did not marry until about 1884.Ada has to be a Wallace.I think she is the same lady who married Zachariah Taylor Hopper (Winfield's brother).Is Madeline and Mary Jane the same?Is Robert and Hattie, Hoppers or Wallaces?And what happened to Humphrey Jim Wallace, and when?
