Note 1
Notes: Jemima is known through three children—John , Francis , and James —all baptized just northwest of Birmingham. She later married Richard Hopkinson in Shirland on 15 June 1800, following the death of a likely first husband. Based on age and location, her first husband is believed to have possibly been John Hopkinson , Richard's brother. At first her husband was a mystery, as she simply appeared every four years and had another baby. She baptized the child as the local version of Hotchkiss or Hodgkinson and no one batted an eye. This made it appear that perhaps her husband was away for regular long periods, as perhaps a seaman or military posted abroad.
