Hi Everyone

Please could someone tell be where exactly Hopperley in Yorkshire is, every time i google Hopperley i can't find it, it seems the town or village does not exist even though i have a baptism for a William Davis baptized in 1768 in Hopperley Yorkshire.

Mark, there seems to be an Apperley - could it be an error?

Alternatively there is a Hopperton, which is east of Knaresborough.
