family appears in the 1870 census in Fletchall Township, Worth County, MO with real estate valued
at $800, personal worth of $500
Roland was a son of Renah Copeland, sister of Anna Copeland Hall and Jefferson Copeland. He was a first cousin to Charlotte Copeland Phipps, Lydia Copeland Phipps and Eliza J. Hall Phipps
Oral tradition claims his wife left him with the financial help of Lucinda Phipps Johnson, fleeing to Montana with the couple's four children. Eliza Jane Phipps Sloan and her offspring do appear
in later records for Gallatin Co, MT. After 1870, however, I have found no further record of her husband, suggesting that he died rather than that the couple separated
