Tried the new MyHeritage feature on a photo of my maternal grandfather, William Bouldin Hopkins (b.1891, Pendleton Co. WV; d. 1943, Jefferson Co., KY). He has a rather frisky tie.

I would please like to join your genealogy conversation.

I would please like to be added to the #HouseHistory starter pack. Thank you. Pam Brinegar @pam79.bsky.social
