  • Notes 


    • The Hopkins family of the Mayflower was not from Wortley, Gloucester as h a d b e e n p reviously speculated and published.

      Giles came with his family on the Mayflower in 1620, at the age of 12. H e v o l u n teered for service in the 1637 Pequot War but was not called. He m a r r i e d Catherine Wheldon in 1639 at Plymouth; the family moved shortly t h e r e a fter to Yarmouth, living there for about five years before moving o n t o s e t t le at Eastham, where he died sometime between 1688 and 1690.
