Max, This is a family group sheet on Shady D. Hopper and Elizabeth R. Lemonds. I gathered this information for a Shady D. Hopper descendant, Bob Hopper, who lives in Dyer, Gibson Co., TN. I am getting ready to send it to him via snail mail. This couple married in Lincoln Co., TN. Also note their 1860 census that includes a 21 year old J. W. Lemonds. I have been told, but did not check it out. that Elizabeth Lemonds Hopper lived with son, Henry, in Crockett Co., TN later. Hope this helps. Diane Husband: Shady D.
