Note the age difference between the 1860 and 1870 Census. The seven is a one or vice versa some where since there does not seem to be another Sophie Kappelmann around the area. However after careful inspection of both census records, both are distinctly written so more source data will be requried to make this decision. - [S40] Probate: Guadalupe, TX, USA.
