My grandfather James C Copeland died in Union County, SC. He never discussed his mother or father. His death Certificated listed Beaty Copeland as his father. I cannot find a Beaty Copeland. I feel the spelling is off. I have tried numerous variations. He appears in the census in Union , sc without a birthday in 1900. We think he is the son of Scott Copeland and Ada in Harris, Ga. He gave his birth day as Jan 12, 1876 for his WWWI Registration.
