1864 July 11, Cedar Villa, Hamilton Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff wrote her cousin Tighlman Jones: "Once more I seat myself to have a brief conversation with you through the medium of pen and ink. This is a lovely Sabbath evening although to muddy to enjoy walking. We have had three hard showers since eleven oclock, which have cooled the air very much. We have had very warm weather indeed for the past three weeks making it very unpleasant for the men in the harvest field.

  "How and where did you spend the fourth of July.  I fear your answer will be on the battle field, I hope not, would that the war was over.  There are all sorts of speculation in regard to Grants and Shermans closing campaigns, but I think they both know what they are about and dont need any person to interfere or advise them.  For my part I think Richmond will be a second Vicksburg affair.  What do you think.  We got but little news now in the paper.
  "12th.  I was obliged to quit writing before finishing and shall now endeavor to finish writing this morning.  The air is cool this morning but I find the heat is gradually increasing.  Uncle Reason and pa are pulling flax this morning.  We had a flax pulling* Saturday evening, but they did not get it quite all pulled.  I do wish you could have seen us, we had the gayest time imaginable.  I never saw any flax growing untill this.  I wrote to your pa almost two months ago and sent him Verners and Marions photographs but I have not received any answer.  I dont know whether he received them or not. . . .  Oh! how thankful I will be when your time is out, when is it, in December or sooner.  poor dear brother, if he had lived his time would have been out the 9th of September.  Marion is at home now.  he will go back Thursday.  he has grown so much.  he likes it very well in Xenia with one exception, he says they are all abolitionists [underlined] not Republicans [underlined].  I suppose you are like all the rest of the soldiers, a warm friend to Lincoln.  I wish every man would seek guidance from our Heavenly Father ere he goes to the polls to vote.  This Election decides the fate of our country.  Are you old enough to vote.  if so may God direct you in your decision.
  "I have not heard from Uncle Joseph since in April.  I am satisfied that my letters are bitter pills that cannot be swallowed.  they choke on them.  I wonder how they will get along when the war is over and the finger of scorn is pointed at them as traitors.  Almost all my relatives are, must I say it, Copperheads [underlined].**  Isn't it too bad.  I can't enjoy myself in their society like I could if they agreed with me in sentiment.  How any person can have a feeling of sympathy for such fiends as those that presided at Fort Pillow,*** have charge of our poor boys at Richmond, Charleston and all other black holes of the South, worse than the black hole of Calcutta.  I don't want to mingle too freely with them.  Our neighborhood is very much mixed up, some being war democrats, others Vallandighamers, the remainder Republicans, but strange to say the women all belong to our soldier's aid society.  All go to work with a will."

• Pulling flax through large hetchels (also known as hatchels or heckels) to separate the fibers followed harvesting the plants, soaking them to soften the stems (usually in a nearby creek or stream), then putting them through a flax break to begin the process of separating the fibers, all of which was hard, difficult work that men had to do. Only after the flax pulling that Ada refers to, could the women begin working with the flax by pulling it through smaller and finer hetchels to begin the process of turning it into yarn for knitting or linen thread for weaving. Ada's statement that she'd never seen flax plants grown before 1864 suggests a reference to the shortage of cloth during the Civil War.
  • Copperheads were Northern Peace Democrats who criticized President Lincoln's administration during the Civil War. Loyal Unionists claimed the Copperheads were pro-Southern because they opposed Lincoln's attempts to free the slaves in the South, favoring, among other things, a compromise with the Confederate States to end the war. The movement reached its peak early in 1863, but Union military victories and Republican election victories in 1864 helped to end the Copperhead movement. --World Book Encyclopedia
    • Fort Pillow, in West TN across the line from Arkansas, April 12, 1864, became known as the "Fort Pillow Massacre." <http://americancivilwar.com/statepic/tn.html> <http://www2.cr.nps.gov/abpp/battles/tn030.htm>

1864 Aug. 10, Sixteen Mile Stand, Hamilton Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff wrote her uncle Joel L. Jones: "Uncle Reasen, Aunt Sarah, and I would like to have attended the association at Uncle Isiahs but we had but one horse so we had to give it up as a bad job and stay at home."

1864 Sept. 19, Cedar Villa, Hamilton Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff wrote her cousin Tighlman Jones: "It was with a great deal of pleasure and a relieved mind that I saw your handwriting on the back of my letter. I had feared for your safety in the last battle. But I knew you was in Gods hands and if your work was not done he would not call you. Our health is good with the exception of Marion. He is lying very ill with fever, Typhoid. He thinks he is rather better although his pulse still beats 100 to the minute. I was at the funeral of one of my cousins* yesterday that died with the same disease. It is very sickly here now. . . . Fruit is scarce with the exception of apples. They are plenty. The corn is better now than it has been in three or four years. The farmers are putting in very large crops of wheat. I hope it will not fail like it did this year. One man had in 71 acres of wheat and gathered 70 bushels. I don't know where his seed is to come from. Looks kind of bad doesn't it? I received a letter from Griffin Saturday evening. He wanted us to meet he and Angeline and his little girl in Cincinnati tomorrow evening. Griffin is going to finish off our house for us. I don't know how long they will be here. I have not heard from your father for a long time. I sent him a letter containing Verners and Marions photos. I don't know whether he ever received them or not. I should like to hear from him. if he does not write soon I will write again. / I am sadly dissappointed. I expected Cousin Jane Love to come with Griffin. I am really disappointed. I do love her so. She seems as near as a sister. / I have not time to write much this morning as uncle wants to take the letter to the office. . . . Excuse the shortness of this letter. I cannot avoid it this time. . . . We all send our love. / Write soon, Goodbye, / Your cousin, / Ada."

1862-1865. ADA's future husband, DAVID HOPKINS, age 23, enlisted Aug. 4, 1862, as a Private in Co. A, 79th OH Infantry Regiment; promoted to Full Corporal, May 18, 1863; promoted to Full Sergeant, May 19, 1864; mustered out at Washington, DC, June 9, 1865.

ca. 1865 May, At home, Sunday morning. Ada Wyckoff wrote her uncle Joel L. Jones: "I had hoped to have been with you instead of writing to you but God does not see as we do and interferes in our plans. I took the chills the middle of March and have had them ever since untill within the past two weeks / uncle Reason says now that he will go with me about the middle of August [to visit you]. So that you will have two instead of one for company. . . . oh uncle when I think of our great bereavements it seems as though I cannot bear them, but our greiving cannot bring them back to us but we must perpare to go to them / I had anticipated so much pleasure with Tighlman, and now he is gone and if Marion should be killed or taken prisoner I believe I would go crazy." and to her cousin Jane Love: "I was so disappointed in not getting out there this spring but I could not get the chills broke for so long / so now I am coming in August uncle Reason and I"

1866 Dec. 16, Sunday Morning. Ada Wyckoff wrote her uncle Joel L. Jones: "I cannot come out next summmer to teach for you but Marion says if you want him too he will come out in March and teach all summer for you. I hope you can secure a school for him . . . If I could see you and uncle Josey this winter I would be so glad but Ma and Pa think they cannot spare their baby to go so far from home. I am in the store a great deal since we moved up here. Pa and Loney are neither of them so closely confined now, as they can both leave at once, and I can attend the store, / Pa says to tell you they are doing a very fair business. . . . Does Lilly look like she used too. / uncle I only weigh eighty eight lbs / how much does Lillac wiegh"

Jones: "I am only home part of the time and part at Hopkinsville / I was there most of the summer" and signed her letter: "Your afflicted and mourning / Neice Ada. Hopkins" and adds "Uncle I cant give up my Darling husband / when I think of my loss I am nearly distracted but I try to be resigned."

1873 Feb. 16, Sixteen Mile Stand, Hamilton Co., OH. William C. Wyckoff wrote his brother-in-law Joel L. Jones: "Reason & Ada is getting Better Slowly . . . we think of Selling out ail togeather if we can find a buyer / Elizabeth is not able to do hard work any more and ada healh is So Poor that we think of Selling and going to Some place whare I can go in Buissness and church is handy . . . we have Sold of most of our Stock. I have two head of horses and ada one / we have two cows & ada one / we Kept a few head of hogs / we have a goodeal of Poultry but we think of Selling it of this Spring as the folk not able to attend to it / if we do not Sell I think we will rent the farm / reserve the house and I will Stay at home this Summer & repair it . . . & we think we will Sell the first good oppertunity, / we would like to have you come in once more while we are in the old neighborhood. I think if we Sell we will go east or in the city on account of adas Healh / She think her health is Better in the city and we Know her health was Better when She was in Philladelphia"

1876 Sept. 18, Sixteen Mile Stand, Hamilton Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin Jane Love: "We have been quite busy all summer and are still busy canning tomatoes quinces grapes and are cutting and drying apples / have near a barrel dried and have made some cider for vinegar. I am in hopes it will not cost us as much next year. to live as it did the past / From June 1875 untill August 1876 we had all our flour to buy. Had a great deal of meat to buy as we had bad luck with our hogs, and also had potatoes and dried fruit to buy but if nothing happens [to] our hogs we will have plenty of meat this year and wont have hogs to buy as we had last year, / I dont know how our potatoes will turn out. But I feel very thankful for the many blessing we have and for the bountiful crops we have had."

no date [ca. 1876 between Sept. 18 and Dec. 10], Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin Jane Love: "Have you done much canning this summer / we commenced with Cherries and it has been gooseberries, currants, blackberries, Grapes tomatoes and to day we finish our quinces / we only had a few pllums / we canned them and when we make our sorghum molasses intend making butter of them / We have made some applebutter but not all we intend making. We have splendid apples."

1877 March 25, At Home. Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin, Jane Love: "Last sabbath it snowed all day and the friday before it rained sleeted and snowed and Ma, Pa and I had gone to my Motherinlaws 8 miles away and had to come home, / you may be sure we were glad when we got home. We are having a larger fire now than we had in February"

1877 Dec. 16, Delaware City, New Castle Co., DE. Lizzie Mercer wrote her niece Jane Love: "if it was not for you and Ada I would never hear from the ? our friends"

1878 Aug. 17, New York City, 200 Canal St. Luella Jones wrote her niece Jane Love: "I had a letter from aunt Lizzie Wikoff (?)sut long since, all well but Ada, she was having the (?)ague. Uncle Reason seems to keep up pretty well this summer. Poor old uncle!, he seems to feel all alone in the world since his brothers have all gone."

1878 Dec. 8, Sixteen Mile Stand, Hamilton Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin Zillman Jones: "I took the billous fever* and nervous chills first of July and was not out of our door yard again untill the last of September / I am not real stron yet"

• Bilious Fever, Typhus Fever, or Remittent Fever; a term loosely applied to certain intestinal and malarial fevers. <http://www.antiquusmorbus.com/English/EnglishB.htm>

and to her cousin Jane Love: "I know you miss uncle, / often you think you will ask him something or tell him things that have happened and when you realize he is gone you feel worse than ever for awhile. I often think of you as one that is doubly orphaned for while uncle lived he was as a father to you but oh what consolation to know we can meet them again never to part more / it i[s] that hope that has kept me up ever since my dear husbands death and oh how many have been added to the land of dear ones since his death. I miss dear uncles letters for I loved to get them / they were always comforting."

• The appearance of this name is very strange because SYDNEY JONES was WILLIAM's first wife; she died ca. 1853-1860 when her children were young, and WILLIAM md. her sister, ELIZABETH JONES, who raised SYDNEY's children.

1883 Aug. 10, Sixteen Mile Stand, Hamilton Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin Jane Love: "Jennie if any letter is brief and uninteresting dont blame me. We have six beside our own family to do for, they have been here two weeks and intend staying for some time yet, and we have others coming spending a day or two besides and it keeps Ma and I busy for we are not very strong. We are milking three cows and taking care of the milk makes a great deal of work."

1883 Oct. 30, Sixteen Mile Stand, Hamilton Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin Jane Love: "I do wish I could send you a can of our peaches off the tree that stand just in front of our sitting room door. the tree was so full of peaches that we had 14 props under it and then two of the limbs split down. . . . Let me give you a picture of us in the sitting room to night, Lillice will remember how it looks, only in place of the big wood fire in the fireplace we have it closed and have a coal stove one that we can cook on. In one corner of the room is a bed and near the foot of it the little stand is placed and the lamp on it / on one side of it sits Pa in his arm chair reading the news / in front of it near the stove sits Ma in her [r]ocking chair se[w]ing, / in the corner in his arm chair near the stove is uncle taking his evening nap and on the opposite side of the stand from Pa is Ada writing to Jane / cant you imagine just how we all look."

1884 Feb. 25, Sixteen Mile Stand, Hamilton Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin Jane Love: "Christmas day I thought of Lillice and wished she was here, / There were seven besides our own family took dinner with us. I had a present of an autograph album / I wish you could write in it."

1884 April 14, Newport, Campbell Co., KY. Griffin Jones wrote his cousins Jane Love, Zillman Jones, and Lillice Jones: "Uncles Wikoffs and uncle reason and aunt lisey and Ada Wikoff or rather ada Hopkins all live ther to gether / we had a letter from them last weeak / they onley tollrably well and there is Poor uncle Reason has Bin down sick over a year and is lying very low at this time / we exspect to get a dispatch of his death any day now as he is not able to turn over in his bed / I was out ther 2 weeaks ago / he was so Bad i only stayed 2 nights one day with him / I Could not stay any longer"

1884 Aug. 31, New York City, 79 E. 10th St. Luella Jones wrote her niece Jane Love: "I had a letter from uncle William Wikoff last week. Uncle R. was very poorly, aunt Lizzie quite feeble, and Ada had been sick since the first of July with malerial fever, and nervous frustration, and himself, not well. My heart aches for them. Uncle has been sick so long, I think. they are all pretty nearly warn out, for they are none of them strong, but yet, they do not complain."

1885 March 11, Ada's uncle, Reason L. JONES, died. 1886 Sept. 11, Ada's father, William Cox WYCKOFF, died.

Ada and her step-mother moved to Mason in Warren Co., OH, after Elizabeth suffered a debilitating stroke.

1887 June 6, Box 259, Mason, Warren Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin Jane Love: "it was so hard for us to move away from the old home and old friends, / The same man that had the farm rented still kept it and we made a sale and sold everything off and moved here by Pa's brothers / Ma and I couldnt stay on the farm alone and it cost too much to hire help and then everything would go down so / We have a small house but it is large enough for Ma and I and we have a nice large lot that we can raise all we want in the vegetable line / Have a real nice garden / peas beans tomato cabbage corn beets onions [pumpkin] squashes sweet potaoes Irish pots cucumbers and a good deal of fruit on the lot too and then we have a chicken yard and raise our own chickens. We pay $ seven dollars a month rent. It seems odd to us to rent. We like it as well here as we would anywheres for no place is home to Ma and I anymore but every one thought it best for us to come here near Pas people. It is quite a pretty little place / is incorporated / Has three churches and a high school in connection with the district school."

1888 March 16, Ada's aunt and step-mother, Elizabeth JONES WYCKOFF, died.

Undated letter (probably late 1888) from Griffin Jones to his cousin, Jane Love [paraphrased]: Our Cousin Ady Wikoff has almost gone crazy, so my daughter Maggie tells me. She was out there to see her "late this fall." I haven't gotten any word from Ada. I have written her 3 letters. She doesn't answer them. She lives at Mason, Ohio. Aunt Lisey is dead. Uncle Reason is dead, and so is uncle William C. Wikoff, so no one is now left but Ady and she is like you and I, our one Cousin to us all.

1889 Jan. 9, Mason, Warren Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin Jane Love: "I took dinner at uncle Peters Christmas and at uncle Garrets New Years / they were sad anniversaries to me / oh what changes on[e] short year can make / last Christmas and New Years Mama was with me / now I am alone and oh how I realize it too"

1889 Apr. 22, Mason, Warren Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin Jane Love: "I have been so very very sick / no one not even my physician thought I could get well but I am getting along nicely now. I was taken very suddenly the 19th day of February with Pleuro Pneumonia and am just now so I can go around the house and into the yard for a minute or two at a time untill my lungs become healed enough to take the the strong air, / I got better once so I could sit up long enough to have my bed made and I took a relapse from some cause / I dont know what for it wasnt for want of care / I have a splendid girl and an attentive physician / no one could be more faithful than he has been, / He said this morning I wouldnt have to take medicine much longer"

1889 July 15, Philadelphia, PA. Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin Jane Love: "You will no doubt be surprised to receive a letter written by me from here / I came to see if there was any chance of my regaining my health and I feel better since I came / I dont know how long I will stay as the Dr told me if I was getting better to remain as long as I could and Henry and Lizzie are so kind. . . . This is such a stormy day that I am afraid I wont get my letter off to day as the Dr positively forbade me getting wet as he said it was very dangerous for me."

1889 Sept. 11, New York City. Ada Wyckoff Hopkins wrote her cousin Jane Love: "I am now in New York City with Ella and aunt Phebe / I came four weeks ago last saturday from Philadelphia, but nearly two weeks of that time I spent with a friend at the seashore, a friend of mine that had moved from Ohio to Seabright N.J. / I enjoyed myself very much indeed while there, / it was so delightful to watch the ocean as the breakers dashed on to the beach in great waves with a roar and a splash. The sand along the beach is so pretty and white and so warm / I enjoyed sailing on the ocean and the bay so much. I have visited many places of interest, and while I was at Seabright I visited Long branch, and Elberon, and there I saw the cottage and room where President Garfield died. I also saw General Grants tomb at Riverside Park N Y. You can look through an iron door and see the casket containing the body. The view of the Hudson from the hill is lovely / you can see across the Hudson river to the Palisade and up and down it for a great distance / New York is a great city / it doesnt cover as much ground as Philadelphia but it has a great many more inhabitants / such very, very, high houses, 6, 7, 8, 9, stories high, laid off in flats and every flat occupied or rooms rented furnished, a family to a room and 6 or 7 different families on one floor, / Its elevated RR, its surface cars, stages, hacks, Hansoms, carts, coupes and everything of the kind of traveling from one place to another, and it is a sight to go to either river front and see the shipping, / I belive I have seen every kind of sailing vessel there is, and I enjoy the sailing in the steamers too. I dont know just how long I will stay here yet but I think if nothing happens to prevent I will go back to Philadelphia before the first of October . . . I dont know when I will go back to Ohio. My health is better when I am in Philadelphia than either here or Ohio. . . . I have visited the old Trinity church and yard [in Philadelphia], / I there saw gravestones marked 1716 and others so old that the letters & figures were entirely obliterated / St. Pauls where Washington attended church after his inauguration is an older (?)edife [edifice] than Trinity."
