Hi
No I do not have my fathers birth certificate as I am now aged 86 years it is long gone but I do now know all his details
Incidentally Just out of curiosity I googled my name " Hopkin Family,Norfolk" and much to my surprise two other people had just contacted each other who where related  to myself and my ancestor's,unfortunately It was dated 10 years ago so I have no idea how to contact them

hi
many thanks to all who replied

what I know;   George Hammond Hopkin born Denver Norfolk 1832 was my ancestor because my father was born in Benson st  Linthorpe the same address that George Hammond moved to from Denver
To much of a coincident to be incorrect
Geo first wife was Maria who died and he remarried to Mary
As one of you mentioned, which I did not know was that John Prior Hopkin was half brother to Geo.
I was wondering how the name Prior kept creeping in ,because Sarah Hopkin nee Hammond had a son named Prior who died approx. 3 years

Hi Guys
Many thanks
The John Prior Hopkin definitely does not fit in

George Hammond Hopkin I am sure he fits in as I remember my father mentioning that he was born in Denver and moved to linthorpe Mbro I know the exact street Benson St

I also know that I am related to Francis and Sarah Hopkin nee Hammond married in 1778 at Fordham Norfolk
Some where in between  I have gone wrong
I will keep battling on
Regards
Len
