South Melbourne, Florida : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hopkins, Florida Hopkins, also known as South Melbourne, is a former town in Brevard County, Florida, United States. It is part of the present-day city of Melbourne. ==Town of Hopkins, Florida== The former town of Hopkins was developed by George W. Hopkins after he formed the Union Cypress Company on the south side of Crane Creek in present-day Melbourne, Florida. This is where Hopkins constructed cypress and pine sawmills in the years between 1910 and 1915. Hopkins also purchased nearly in southwestern Brevard County and Osceola County. Hopkins constructed the ''Union Cypress Railroad'' to transport timber from Deer Park in Osceola county to his mills south of Melbourne. The Hopkins operation became the company town of Hopkins, employing up to 500 men at its peak, complete with a company store, hospital, post office and FEC railroad depot.〔Nance, Ellwood C. et al., ''The East Coast of Florida'', p. 320-321; "Brevard County," ''East Coast Advocate'', Illustrated Supplement, Apr. 4, 1916, p. 4;〕
