Hopley Trivia
During my research I have found
a fair amount of Hopley trivia (or useless information)
such as:
- There were no passengers
or crew with the surname Hopley on the Titanic.
- John Edward Hopley (Royal
Academy) invented the method of facial measurement.
- The author Catherine Crowe
wrote the novel Susan Hopley (1841)
- The parents of Keith Moon (1946-1978), the
former drummer of the British band 'The Who' were Alfred
Charles Moon and Kathleen Winifred Moon (nee Hopley).
(They lived in the west London area of Wembley.
- Hopley's Purple Oregano (or Origanum
laevigatum).
Thanks to William Hopley for the following:
- There is also a company, created to run an
office block, the company is called Hopley International
Ltd. Their offices are in Hong Kong. They have been in
charge of the construction of many major buildings. http://www.curtainwall.com/acsi/project_detail.htm

international rugby player, called Damien Hopley.
