To look it up in Familysearch 1880 censusv use the name John FOPAR
Staats are listed as the house before the Toupin.
To me, the actual handwriting looks like Topan. But if I'm correct, his sister is next door. You may have him listed as Jean Baptiste Toupin. I do.
Sorry, censuses spellings can be really bad, and indexes worse. But sometimes they can lead to real answers or bigger confusion.
