Daughter of Joe Sanders and Eleanor Williams. She became the bride of W. D. Hopkins on 12 MAR 1865 in Perry Co., AL while he was home from the Civil War.
Memorial created by Rebecca's great granddaughter.
Tombstone: In 2012 the family became aware that Rebecca's upright tombstone had fallen. October 2014, the family investigate the situation. It was learned that the equipment needed to lift the stone couldn't get into the cemetery because of the surrounding fence and grave markers. Rebecca's grave site is on an incline now. If the marker was fixed, the incline would have to be resolved to prevent the marker from falling again.

Inscription
"A light from our household is gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our hearts
that never can be filled."
Written on the back of her marker.
"At Rest Our Mother"
