The Hopkins, Witzel's of Ionia and surounding area Michigan.

I have done a lot of research with my in-laws help and gotten back as far as 110 AD. My mother Percilla Hopkins Benedict started researching when I was a small child. As an adult I took over and went from what she had found to get what I have now. This is my tribute to her as she is dying of cancer now. God bless all of you in your search as family is the most important gift you have been given.

If you think you might be related please e-mail me as I would love to hear from you and add any information you may have. Thank-you to all those who have made this possible and given me that head start when I hit deadends.
