Hannah Rebecca Cope Plimpton (June 19, 1841 – July 7, 1929 in Chicago, Illinois[1]) was a Woman's Relief Corps worker.

Her father, Nathan Cope, and mother, Elizabeth B. Taylor, were reared in West Chester, Pennsylvania.

[2] It was during that time, in the spring of 1862, after the Battle of Shiloh, when the wounded soldiers were sent up the Ohio River to Cincinnati, and a call was made for volunteers to help take care of them, that she, with her mother, responded and did what they could in ministering to the needs of the sick and afflicted ones, providing many delicacies and such things as were needed in a hastily-improvised hospital.

Finally, the old orphan asylum was secured and fitted up as comfortably as possible, and called the Washington Park Military Hospital.

In the fall of 1891, she was elected matron of the National Woman's Relief Corps Home, in Madison, Ohio.
