Adam, not sure if this is what you want.

In tiddler : NewTiddler
\define concatStateTiddler(value)
<$list filter="[all[current]get[draft.of]] [all[current]!has[draft.of]] 
+[addprefix[$:/state/]]">
<$view field=backup-$value$/>
</$list>
\end

In tiddler: 
*$:/state/NewTiddler*has field: *backup-1*
field backup-1 has value : *somevalue*

When *NewTiddler* is being viewed or edited, this macro in its text field 
*<<concatStateTiddler 
1>>*  should give a result of : *somevalue*
