When he passed he donated a big chunk of $ to start the hospital...and his first name was "JOHNS"... not John. This family hopped around a little. They landed in Jamestown, VA..went to Anne Arundel Co., MD...then to eastern PA and then to western, PA. I have one of the Hopkins married into my tree...that's how I know.
