In Hopewell Cemetery, during the restoration, 2 footstones were found, 1 with intitials H M and was near the stone of U B Morrow, the other had the initials J S and at the same grave was the base of a broken stone, though the top has not been found.
Twenty-eight people died at Warrenton of yellow fever in the summer of 1853: four victims were taken from steamboats and buried at Hopewell, their identities unknown.
'Nothing remains to mark the site of dear Old Hopewell but the graveyard, where reposes the dust of some of the best of our race, awaiting the "resurection of the just"
The Rev. John G Jones, 1887
