Notes for Cynthia Hopkins:
I found a handwritten copy of this obit
for Cynthia Hopkins, next to a copy of births and deaths in a family
bible. I'll try to type it as it is written.
Mrs. Cynthia Fine who died in Camp Branch on the 23rd of March was one
of the oldest residents of this part of the state. Her maiden name was
Cynthia Hopkins. She was born in Kentucky in 1798 and moved to Missouri
in 1810 and settled in what is now Montgomery County, near Belleville
about one year later in the locality she resided ever since. She lived
to see all her old neighbors pass away, and while new generations were
born in to the world and grew to manhood and womanhood, served their
time upon the stage of life and made their exit in the grate.
Unknown, this good woman lived on in quite peaceful and uneventful
way. Having arrived here a few years after the territory of Louisiana
was ceded to the United States she has seen Missouri organized into a
separate territory and admitted as a state. She has lived until the few
meager settlements in the old settled portion of the state has grown
into a population of near three mill souls. When she came here this
country was a vast expanse of wild prairie on the North, and a
wilderness on the South and their nearest neighbors lived miles apart.
What a contrast to the present day. When every foot of prairie is in
high state of cultivation dotted over with handsome residents and
instead of the savage war whoop that some times chased these early
settlers to Pondfort 35 miles east for refuge.
We now hear the snort of the steam engine as it all most hourly plunges
across our domain bearing away loaded trains of the products of the
fertile soil. The subject of this sketch was married in 1819 to the late
Abraham Fine with whom she lived happily for a period of sixty two
years.
Mrs. Fine possessed a retentive memory and never tired of narrating
incidents connected with the early settlement of this state and often
spoke of her husband having to go 35 miles to muster and 50 miles to
mill.
When she ferried across the River at St. Louis in 1810 she described
that place as being a little ugly French village strung along the River
and in front of a heavy thicket of black jacks. Her husband was offered
the ferry boat at that place as a present if he would attend to it. But
thinking the little town would never amount to anything he declined to
accept it. She also related that about that time 300 arpents of land now
in the hear of the great city was given in exhange for an ordinary side
saddle.
Mrs. Fine was the mother of twelve children, three daughters and nine
sons, all of whom grew up and married, except one. Many of them settled
in the same neighborhood and are now heads of large families. Her
children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren number about ninety.
Mrs. Fine never united with any church but was a good, motherly woman

Marriage Notes for Abraham Fine and Cynthia Hopkins:
The nearest Justice of the Peace wasJames Duncan, of Lincoln county, who lived sixteen miles distant, and was too old to go so far to marry perople. But he agreed to meet them half way.

Accordingly on the day of the wedding they set out on foot, and walked to the
designated place, where the 'Squire met them and performed the ceremony, and
they walked back home the same day. Mrs. Fines still has the dress that she
wore on that memorable occasion. Mr. Fines was a very active man, and no one
could beat him on a foot race.

He was one of the first grand jurymen of Montgomery county.

He says that while out hunting one day, he came upon a den of rattlesnakes, whose heads were so thick where they stretched themselves out of their den that they looked like corn stubbles in a field. He fired into them with his gun and then ran away without looking back to see what execution he had done.
