His son Edward Adderly Stopford was also a Church of Ireland cleric, and served as Rector of Kells, and Archdeacon of Meath appointed by his father. Stopford's granddaughter was the writer, historian, and nominee to the Irish Free State Senate Alice Stopford Green (1847–1929).[7] He was also the great-grandfather of the Anglican nun and botanist Mother Mary Clare, who died during a death march during the Korean War.[8]
