Note: All children of Samuel Hopper are supposed to be from his marriage to his second wife, Sarah McKinney, and are listed here as such. However, it should be noted that there is no proof of her parentage of any of the children older than Zachariah. Also, Sarah McKinney Hopper is supposedly related to the other McKinneys in Rabun Co., GA during the same time period, but I have not yet proven this.
