Narrative

There is a Joy Joan Hopper buried in Laurel Grove Cemetery, Port Townsend, Jefferson Cty, Washington, with the right birth year to match Joy J. Thomas; FindaGrave.com has her maiden name given as Esbenson, daughter of Blanche Esbenson, though I do not know the sourcing for that information. Jim Flack's research turned up Washington Death Index and US Social Security Death Index records for Joy Hopper, the latter of which indicated the SSN was issued in Nebraska, and both of which indicate death in Port Townsend.
