Hello Rexanna,I may be able to add some additional information, however this is not part of my line and can't answer for sure if Martin is the father of Warner.
Martin is the only male Copeland in Monroe County VA during the 1810 and 1820 Census. (spelled Coplen in 1820).Then in 1824 there's a very nice marriage record of Warner Copeland and Betsy Polly Bailey (aka Mary).Monroe County VA became Monroe County West Virginia during the Civil War.
The actual marriage License is list at this web site.
