Silas was a country doctor and a lay preacher in the Universalist Church. The family was in Shelby County, IN from 1846 or before and into the 1850s. They lived in Pleasant View which is just below Indianapolis (Marion County).

A 1939 newspaper article had this to say: "He came to Marion County, Indiana, sometime between 1850 and 1860. By his first marriage, he was the father of several children--at least 4 sons, Johnson, Sylvester, Manfred and John. He married for his second wife, Martha (Beckley) Wolfe, a widow, in Marion County, Indiana. By this second marriage he was the father of Charles Silas (Sike) Poppino, who was born Sept. 20, 1862, south of Indianapolis, near the Marion-Johnson county line. Dr. Silas Poppino moved to New Lebanon in 1871, and died there in 1897, [wrong date] at the age of 70 years. Both Dr. Silas Poppino and his widow Martha (Beckley) Poppino are buried at the Burnett Cemetery, near New Lebanon, Indiana.
