William Ebenezer Culpepper of Laurens Co., GA

M, (circa 1857 - 19 February 1924)
MotherSantilla Culpepper (c 1823 - b 1870)
DNA DNA testing of descendants of different sons of William Ebenezer Culpepper of Laurens Co., GA show that the descendants are related to each other but not to the mainline of Culpeppers. Historical research shows that brothers Christopher Columbus Culpepper of Laurens Co., GA and William Ebenezer Culpepper of Laurens Co., GA were probably born out of wedlock to Santilla Culpepper. DNA testing of one descendant of each of these brothers shows that the descendants have no paternal relationship to other Culpeppers or to each other. We would like to verify these test results by testing another descendant of each brother.1
