Context

Hello, Paul -- Thanks for the e-mail. Hopewell was the name of a Friends community located just north of Pennsville and south of Malta. It is located on SR 377 in Malta Township. A relative of mine named Caleb Gregg is said to have built the meeting house, which is now a dwelling. The burial ground is located at an intersection, on the east side of 377. I can't remember the number of the cross road, but I believe it is a county road with a low number (I believe it is CR8). I have not researched the Embree family, so I don't know if the following information will be helpful. There is a Hicksite burial ground about a mile north of Hopewell on the west side of the road. It is located at another intersection. The meeting house was demolished there about 70 years ago. Hope this has been helpful -- Seth
