Looks at the ancestry and traces the known descendants of Daniel Hoopes, the son of Joshua Hoopes and Ann, baptized 27 May 1672 in Skelton-in-Cleveland, Yorkshire, England and died in 1749 in Chester County, Pennsylvania. He married Jane Worrilaw, daughter of Thomas Worilaw and Jean Perkes, 10 Dec 1696 in Middletown Township, Delaware County, Pennsylvania. They had eighteen children. Descendants and relatives lived mainly in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Oklahoma and Utah. Includes Allred, Anderson, Bird, Darlington, Gifford, Johnson, Peterson, Stewart, Watkins and related families. Includes a 130-page index of names covered, in Volume 3
The volumes were apparently owned by a related family member doing research on the Hoopes-Hoops family line. There are a number of bookmarks in each volume with genealogical information, and there is marginalia here and there throughout, mainly lines marking passages and handwritten page numbers for reference. At the top of the dedication page of Volume I is the handwritten name of "Bina Alverda Hoops Beasley" and the date Sept. 4, 1979. Perhaps the previous owner was related to her.
The 3 volumes are in GOOD condition, there are relevant marks, lines and inserted bookmarks as noted above, the spines have some light creasing from use, otherwise just gently used and still tight, bright, clean and clear. A solid, presentable set, with an interesting provenance.
