The reason I ask is that one living alleged direct descendant of Hampton Hopkins has had his DNA checked and it does NOT match one known living male descendant of Hampton's (alleged) son Benjamin Franklin Hopkins b. 1812 NC. In the interest of clearing this up once and for all, it would be in our genealogical best interest to test at least one or more additional living male direct descendants of Hampton's. I can refer such candidate(s) to the lab doing the DNA work if requested.
