Address given as:- Near the Church, Haslingfield, Chesterton, Cambridgeshire,

Perhaps she was known by her middle name but this would mean that the date of birth given on the baptism is wrong as the date of birth given here matches up with Elizabeth's age on the 1911 census.

Dont know any off these?? thought Elizabeth was a Woodhams from Sussex?

Barry you say she died 1922 where was that please?

Barry

On that memorial card, does it state who James Harry is, in respect of relationship?

I'm just wondering if he was a son?

It's too much of a coincidence that there was an Elizabeth Hopkins, living at the same address in 1911 and the Probate for her has the same address

Deaths Mar 1945 (>99%)

Hopkins James H 79 Tonbridge 2a 1456


16 February 1945 - Kent & Sussex Courier - Tunbridge Wells, Kent,

HARTFIELD
The death occurred at the Kent and Sussex Hospital on Thursday Mr. James Harry Hopkins, of Upper Hartfield. A native of Cambridge, the deceased gentleman was farm bailiff, living at Possingford Farm from 1910 to 1930. The next four years were spent at the Five Hundred on the De La Warr Estate, and in 1934 he retired to Upper Hartfield. He was in his 80th year, and is survived by two daughters and five sons, the youngest of whom is serving in Italy.
Mrs. Hopkins passed away in 1922, and it was in an adjoining grave in the churchyard that Mr. Hopkins was laid to rest.


13 January 1922 - Kent & Sussex Courier - Tunbridge Wells, Kent,
