General Notes: Husband - James G. Hopper


He grew to manhood in South Fayette Township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, and remained on the home farm until he went into a livery and undertaking business at Bridgeville, where he continued until he came with his two brothers, Wesley J. and Arthur J. Hopper to Canonsburg, in March, 1904. These three brothers comprised the firm of Hopper Bros. They purchased the business of Alexander Speer when they came to the city, enlarged its scope, fitted up handsome and appropriate quarters and have did a large business there.


General Notes: Wife - Margaret H. Robb


She died in 1893. [TCHWWC, 1155] But other sources make this seem unlikely.
