From Alice (Whiddon) Jones:

The Culpepper women had great tenacity. My great-grandmother, Lucy Ann Culpepper (daughter of David Chadwell Culpepper, a Civil War soldier) insisted on showing the family how she managed to ride a horse, side-saddle, holding a baby and a parasol on her eightieth birthday. My mother's comment was she could not believe anyone was crazy enough to submit a baby to that risk!10

Biography* According to his grandson, William L. Wingate, Sr., Green was cutting trees to use to build the kitchen for the family home. He had completed the main house except for flooring it. As the cut tree fell, a limb hit another tree causing the cut tree to skid into Whiddon, pinning him to the ground killing him.... Neighbors came and worked the crop for the family.

    On 31 Mar 2010, Tim wrote: "The story about David's being fatally wounded at Chancellorsville doesn't completely mesh with what I've been able to find in the records. David C. Culpepper is listed in the confederate service records for the 50th Georgia as having been sent home on 30 day furlough by a surgeon. No further record, and no indication he died at Chancellorsville. I can't find another David C. Culpepper in confederate service records."

Obituary*31 Dec 1902 RUPTURE OF BLOOD VESSEL IN THE BRAIN: Caused Death of Jeff C. CULPEPPER, Well-known Confederate Veteran
     Mr. Jeff C. CULPEPPER, aged 71 years, a well known Confederate veteran, died at his residence, No. 1333 Twelfth avenue, east of the city, at noon Monday. The funeral occurred yesterday afternoon, the interment being in Girard cemetery.
     The circumstances under which Mr. CULPEPPER, or rather under which he was stricken, were rather peculiar. It seems that Saturday night he and another man were going up Wynn's hill when they both fell into a ditch. The man stated that he himself fell, but that Mr. CULPEPPER did not strike the ground, as he was able to reach him in time to prevent his striking the ground violently, and let him down rather gently. It seems that Mr. CULPEPPER never regained consciousness. He was carried into a house nearby and later carried to his home. He was waited upon by Drs. GILL and COSBY, but he had sustained a fatal stroke of something like apoplexy. Paralysis was brought on by the rupture of a blood vessel in his head. His family thought that he had met his death as a result of foul play. There was a bruise on his head, and other bruiseJefferson C. Culpepper about his person, from which ___ was raised that he had been roughly bandied by someone. The coroner was summoned but decided not to hold an inquest, as he did not think the county would pay for it. The family were anxious to have an inquest held, but did not have the funds with which to pay the jury. One of the doctors said last night that he was inclined to think that there was nothing in the theory of foul play; that [since] Mr. CULPEPPER was quite old, and possibly the blood vesselJefferson C. Culpepper in his brain were distended, he might have sustained paralysis, which cause him to fall down, or possibly the shock of the fall itself burst some of the blood vessels.
     Mr. CULPEPPER served in the war as a member of Company C, Seventeenth of Camp Benning. He was a member of Camp Benning, and a number of members of the camp attended his funeral.
     Besides his wife, Mr. CULPEPPER is survived by two sons, Mr. Jesse CULPEPPER, whose whereabouts are not known, and Mr. Robert CULPEPPER, of Columbus, and two daughters, Miss Ophelia and Miss Fannie May CULPEPPER, both of this city. One brother, Mr. John CULPEPPER, of Columbus, and one sister, Mrs. Caroline ADAMS, of Heard county, Georgia, also survive him.
     The funeral services, which was from the house at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon, was conducted by Rev. H. C. HARLEY [? BARLEY? BAXLEY?]. The pallbearers were Messrs. T. J. BATES, R. W. LEDSINGER, J. C. DAVIS, C. H. HERRING, J. M. REES and T. W. BURKE.10

Wit: Levi Davis, Lewis G. Linder.9 
Biography* Henry Culpepper was born in 1781, probably in Anson County, NC. John Culpepper, believed by this writer to be Henry's father, moved from Anson County, NC, to Washington County, GA, perhaps as early as 1786. Henry grew up in Washington County.
     He married his wife Edith there around 1802. He was about 21 years old and she was about 16. Edith's maiden name is not known, but she was probably the daughter of a nearby landowner, perhaps named Smith or Allen, since these were middle names she used for her sons. Smith seems most likely, as there are several Culpepper and Smith connections going back to Anson County, NC.
     Henry's father John probably gave him a good bit of land about the time of his marriage, and he seems to have purchased additional land there as well. But Washington County records prior to 1852 are lost. In December 1811, the area in Washington County where Henry lived, on Big Creek, which flows into the Oconee River, became part of Laurens County. By then, Henry was 30 years old and was an established and successful planter.
     Laurens County deed records give no indication that he purchased additional land in the newly formed county. In February 1812 Henry was appointed overseer on the road from Beaty Ferry to Sandersville. He was also named on the committee to apportion work on the roads east of the Oconee River. This is another indication that Henry was someone of prominence in the section of Laurens County east of the Oconee River (formerly Washington County).
     In November 1818, Henry Culpepper sold 300 acres in Laurens County to Sampson Culpepper of Jackson County, GA. The land was an original grant to John Reeves and Reuben Wilkinson in January 1799, in Washington County, GA. Witnesses were Thomas O'Neal (perhaps a relative of Henry's first cousin Eleanor Culpepper, daughter of Sampson Culpepper, who married William O'Neal about 1799), and David Culpepper, thought to be Henry's brother. Henry named a son David in 1811.
     Henry was in the 1820 census of Laurens County, living near Sampson Culpepper, Jr., son of John and Aggy Culpepper. (Sampson's widow Martha sold her 200 acres on "Big Creek, Buckeye Creek" in 1828). Henry and Sampson were probably brothers. David and Elijah Culpepper were also in the 1820 Laurens County census, living nearby, and were probably Henry's brothers as well. By 1820 Henry and Edith had four daughters and three sons, ranging in age from one year old to sixteen years old. A final daughter was born in December 1821.
     Henry was only 40 years old when he died in January 1822. No obituary has been found, so the circumstances of his death are unknown. He might have died in a farm accident, succumbed to a fever, or to appendicitis. The inventory of his estate lists nine slaves, indicating once again that he was a prosperous planter. Davis Smith, perhaps his wife's brother, was appointed administrator of his estate. Among the buyers at Henry's estate were his brother David Culpepper, Martha Culpepper, probably the widow of Henry's brother Sampson (Henry had a daughter Martha, but she was only aged fourteen), John Smith Culpepper (Henry's sixteen year old son), Davis Smith, Hughs Smith, James Hogan, and other relatives, including Henry's nephew Benjamin Culpepper, son of David Culpepper, and James Hightower, who had married Henry's eldest daughter Sarah in 1821.
     Edith Culpepper was appointed guardian of her minor children in 1830, with Russel Kellam and Jonathan Parker as securities. Russel Kellam was probably a kinsman of Seth F. Kellam, who married Mary Culpepper, daughter of Henry's brother David Culpepper.
     In 1831 Russel Kellam and David Culpepper, Henry's brother, were among those appointed to divide the Henry Culpepper estate. In October 1839, the heirs of Henry Culpepper sold the 150 acres where Henry's widow Edith Culpepper had lived (apparently she was just then deceased) to W. L. Mason. (Laurens County Deed Bk. K-325). This may have been land originally granted to John Culpepper in Washington County.
     That Henry Culpepper was the son of John and Agnes or Aggy Culpepper is not proven, but this writer feels that Henry's associations with John's known children, David & Sampson, and his close physical proximity to them, makes it almost certain that he was John's son. David and Sampson Culpepper were mentioned as sons of John Culpepper in an 1808 deed recorded in Jones County, GA (see the report on John Culpepper). Also, records associate Henry Culpepper with the Smith family, which has other connections with this branch of the Culpeppers. And Henry Culpepper was also associated with the Hogan family. Henry's daughter Martha married Uriah Griffin Bonaparte Hogan, grandson of Griffin Hogan, son of James Hogan. Henry's brother David married Elizabeth Hogan, daughter of Griffin Hogan. And this Hogan family was closely related to the Smith family in Anson County, NC as well. 
Family Bible* Family Bible of Henry and Edith Culpepper of Laurens Co., GA (born 1781)

The following transcription by Warren Culpepper was made from photocopies of some pages found in the early 1990s in an old trunk inherited by a descendant of U. G. B. Hogan, orphan grandson of Griffin Hogan. The pages appear to be from an old family bible maintained by a descendant of Henry and Edith Culpepper, and all entries are for this couple and their children. All of the entries appear to have been made by the same person and at the same time, presumably not long after the final entry in 1876. Most likely, the recorder was the youngest daughter, Elizabeth Culpepper Adams. The numbers in parentheses are person numbers for records in this family tree.
