***John Hopper. Wife Mary. Listed in census from 1810 to 1860. Died in 1862. Birthplace and date unknown. Owned and operated a
lumber and grist mill in Liberty Township, PA, on the border of Montour and Northumberland counties (present day boundaries), near
Montour Ridge. When he first purchased the mill property he did so in partnership with Paul Hopper (brother or father?) and Paul's
wife Katherine. Later the property was solely in John's hands.
