<p>Stephen and Betsy had a small farm in the Werribee area of Melbourne and Stephen was also employed to open and close the railway gates at the level crossing there (where the station is now situated). This location became known as ‘<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoppers_Crossing,_Victoria" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Hopper’s Crossing’ </a>and today is a bustling suburb of Melbourne with a population of around 37,000 people. There is also ‘Hoppers Lane’ which runs through Werribee’s animal research institute, crossing Princes Highway and the Railway Line: this street and the suburb were both named after the Hopper family. Stephen and Betsy eventually had <a href="https://thewillistree.info/genealogy/familygroup.php?familyID=F1015..." target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">eleven children</a> and there are still Hoppers in the Hoppers Crossing area who are descendants of some of those children.</p>
