I did not see a Saphronia M COPELAND in the 1880 US Census for TN but there is a listing for an S.M. COPELAND... Household: Name Relation Marital Gender Race Age Birthplace Occup. Father Mother Stat BP BP J. R. COPELAND Self M Male W 73 TN Farmer NC TN Sally COPELAND Wife M Female W 68 VA Keeping House VA VA Clarinda COPELAND Dau S Female W 46 TN Keeping House TN VA S. M. COPELAND Dau S Female W 20 TN At School TN VA ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Source Information: Census Place District 10, Overton, Tennessee Family History Library Film 1255274 NA Film Number T9-1274 Page Number 347D I would venture a guess that this SM is the granddaughter of JR and the daughter of Clarinda... Not sure if this fits into your research or not...SM would have been born around 1860. You could compare it to the info on the 1900 Census that you say you have.
