HofJSwel ' the eacly ent, Mrs, Marvin Turpin, revives iram art of quilting. nj ijg ipi ' 5211131 Cjf TJX Our modern city of Hopewell was born in 1915 when E. I. DuPont Nemours Company pur¬ chased 1800 acres from the Eppes family and built a small dynamite plant, naming the project Hopewell. Then came the first World War and guncotton took the place of dynamite. Popula¬ tion grew to 30,000 people and Hopewell became a totally uncontrollable boom town. After the war, the population fell to 1,369 until 1920 when peacetime industries located here. Presently seven major industrial corporations employ over 7,400 of the 25,000 population. Today a great deal of interest is focused on the Hopewell of yesterday. Concerned citizens formed the Historic Hopewell Foundation and began the restoration of Weston Manor (1735) which was designated a Virginia Historic Land¬ mark, along with Appomattox Manor. Plans for the complete restoration and development of Historic City Point are now underway. Hope¬ fully, future citizens of Hopewell will be able to view the past through the restored homes and taverns of her earliest years, begun in the Bicen¬ tennial year —1976.
