I have family names dating back to 1700. I believe there is a native history. How do I find out?
Thomas E Hopson 1768 married to Martha Hopson 1779 - 4th Great Grands
Thomas Wright 1789-1860 married to Harriet Wright 1794-1860 3rd Great Grands
Marshall Hopson 1815-1875 married to Elizabeth Hopson 1818 2nd Great Grands
I am trying to understand Native American genealogy and its linked to the Hopson side. How can I find out?
Dear Mr. Williams,
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
We suggest that you begin your Native American search by reviewing NARA’s Researching an Individual or Family web pages.
You also may wish to use the FamilySearch wiki for American Indians.
We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your family research.
