Hopkins Family Park

Hopkins Family Park On August 4, 2015 Richard & Gwen Hopkins donated 41 acres of family farmland to Gibson County for the Hopkins Family Park in Francisco, Indiana.

Richard Dee and Carol Gwen Hopkins are pleased to establish the Hopkins Family Park in the memory and honor of their ancestors who, for nine generations, have lived and raised their families in Gibson County, particularly in and around Center Township. Phase one of the Hopkins Family Park is settled on 40 acres at Section 21, Township 2 South, Range 29 West in Center Township of Gibson County, Ind

iana. The land is bounded by Seedtick Road 250 E and 750 E in Francisco about a mile and half west of the intersection of Interstate 69 and State Road 64. Phase one of the park is a portion of 56 ½ acres of farm land purchased by Richard’s parents, Dee and Mabel Hopkins, in the late 1940s from Mabel’s brother-in-law and sister, Court and Opal Young. Richard Hopkins bought it from his parents in the spring of 1984. In all, 200 acres of farm land is slated to become a part of the Hopkins Family Park in phases over time.
