The Madisonian
"GRANDMA COPELAN"

   How shocked and saddened the people of the little community of Brownwood 
were when the word was told that "Grandma" Copelan was dead.  To everybody 
here she was loved and called "Grandma."  She and "Grandpa" had walked 
together for sixty-three years.  They came in to our midst something like 
twenty years ago.  Since then they have been lovingly known to everybody 
as "Grandma" and "Grandpa."
   The end came so quietly and peacefully that those watching hardly knew when 
she left, on Tuesday afternoon about 3:30 at her home.
   The subject of our sketch was Miss Parmelia Victoria Winslett, of Putnam 
county, born there Feb. 18, 1854.  In November 1872 she was happily married to 
Mr. Roe Copelan, of Greene county.  to this union was born four boys and one 
girl, one son and daughter preceded her to the glory world.
   She leaves her husband and three sons, Thad, Alcester and Carey.
                                 Miss Sue Manie.

Additional Comments:
According to tax records, Roe and Permelia Copelan moved into Morgan County in 
late 1923 or early 1924.  A separate obituary was also published in the same 
issue.
