Ronald, not sure exactly where you are in your investigation.
There was a B.C. Hopkins, age 29, in the 1880 Census living in Foster Township, Marion County, Illinois with wife Eliza, age 26.They had the following children:
William D, age 5
W. W., age 1
The 1900 Census shows a Beverly C Hopkins, age 49, living in Pope Township, Fayette County, Illinois.He is listed as widowed and has the following children living in his household:
Laura L, age 16
Ada, age 13
John O, age 5
Orvil, age 5
Strangely there are 2 marriage records for Beverly C Hopkins in Marion County if I'm reading it right.Married Penisa A Knight on 2 Feb 1875 and then Elizabeth A Knight on 4 Aug 1875.
No death record on file in the Illinois database for Elizabeth Hopkins.Might try the courthouse.
Hope that maybe helps.
