Amanda E. Culpepper

F, (9 March 1840 - )
FatherGardner Culpepper of Thomas Co., GA (11 Dec 1810 - 22 May 1868)
MotherCaroline Jones (28 Apr 1815 - 18 Nov 1885)
Birth*9 March 1840 Amanda was born at Talbot Co., Georgia, on 9 March 1840. 
(free wh female 00-05) 1840 Census1 June 1840 Nancy and Amanda was probably a free white female, under five years old, in Gardner Culpepper of Thomas Co., GA's household, on the 1840 Census on 1 June 1840 at Talbot Co., Georgia.1 
(Family Member) Relocationcirca 1847 She, as a family member, accompanied Gardner Culpepper of Thomas Co., GA in relocating circa 1847 at Lee Co., Georgia; Historical background explaining the possible rationale for Gardner's move into and out of Lee County:
     In addition to fertile lands around Palmyra, the hammock lands northward along Kinchafooa and Muckalee Creeks were found to be rich. With increasing settlement and cultivation the pine high lands, on both sides of the territory drained by the Kinchafoona, Muckaloochee, and Muckalee Creeks, were found to be also almost equal to the hummocks in fertility. The soil of the county came to be considered as mostly fertile. Only the western part, having a reddish, thirsty, sandy soil, and a belt along the Flint River in the eastern part were found to be of inferior quality.
     Prospects of ready transportation by railroad through Macon and by steamboat from Albany to cotton markets throughout the world caused rapid transfer of the cotton-planting interests from the upper counties to Lee. Although the first steamboat reached Albany in 1837, the river was not used for much commercial navigation until after 1847 with the elimination of the worst shoal on the Flint River between Albany and Apalachicola. In 1848, the proposed railroad from Macon through Lee County to Albany had been legalized by sufficient subscriptions, including some from Lee County. The newspapers, the Southwestern Georgian (later the Albany Courier), founded in 1841, and the Albany Patriot, founded in 1845, also had some influence in publicizing the section for settlers." The June 30, 1847, issue of the Patriot had the following items:
     "We were shown on Monday last, two stalks of cotton from the plantation of Mr. Robert Thompson, of Lee County. One stalk was of the Grand Gulf Cotton... about six feet high, and had some eight or ten full grown bolls on it. We were assured that there were several bolls opened in the field from which this was taken. The other stalk was nearly six feet high, and had on it upwards of one hundred bolls and forms. It was not quite so forward on the other stalk. There is said to be two hundred acres of cotton on the same plantation as good as these specimens..."
     With such inducements large numbers of settlers came in from Liberty, Burk, Baldwin, and Putnam Counties. Rich plantations of hammock land grew up along the Kinchafoona and Muckalee Creeks. By 1849, the distribution of cultivated farming lands was shown by agricultural settlements to the north of Palmyra: Cotton Bluff (probably so named as a collection point for shipping cotton to Albany), Starkville with new settlers, Oceola and Chenuba, to the northwest, and Sumterville, to the northeast.
     Despite the transfer of a strip of this county's lands to Dooly County in 1842, population increased from 2,370 white and 2,706 black in 1840 to 3,025 white and 3,634 black, including 7 free black, in 1850. The white population was the largest the county has ever had. There were 387 farms, averaging seven whites with nine slaves to the farm, and 550 dwellings. Since the county contained 506 square miles or 323,841 acres, the landholdings in and adjacent to each farm average 837 acres. The major portion of the land was the unpeopled pine and swampy land surrounding the plantations. Real estate in the county had a tax valuation of $l,148,224, and an average sale value of $10 per acre. Personal estates, largely slaves, were valued at $2,207,702. Since there were 3,626 slaves, the average value per slave was about $600. The ordinary crop of a county planter was 100 to 2,000 bales of cotton. Average yield of the land per acre was 800 pounds of cotton, 20 bushels of corn, and 10 bushels of wheat. Little attention was paid to orchards.
     The history of farming in Lee County was probably similar to that generally of the cotton belt in southwestern Georgia. There was an influx of small farmers interested in growing cotton. Some chanced upon rich lands, others upon poor; some were near navigation, others were far; some were expert, vigorous, frugal and farsighted, others were slack, spendthrift or merely perhaps unlucky. Profits from efficiency and good fortune enabled some to buy slaves and then to buy neighboring lands and attain eventually the scale and rank of planters. For their added lands they, raid prices acceptable to those who heard the loud call of the West; but they could force no man to sell who was not so minded. There were several farmers to every planter, throughout the best cotton zone, each producing cotton in sturdy competition with his neighbor, great or small. "Divergencies were of continuous gradation from the wealthy to paupers." In the last instance only does Lee County differ. There is little record of poverty among the white people in Lee County before the War.
     Lee County's comparative wealth was due to early climatic conditions. The swampy lands interspersed in the county and the drinking water produced fevers among white people. The blacks, however, were immune to the fevers and thrived in the semi-tropical climate. The large white population of 1850 dwindled. Many sold their lands to those who had the financial resources to consolidate the lands into large plantations and to buy slaves to work them. Many of the owners lived away from their plantations, in Starkville, Palmyra, and in cities outside the county, such as Albany, Americus, and Macon. Agriculture was the county's only source of income, and slaves did this work. There were no possible opportunities to induce poor people to remain. By 1860, the white poulation was only 2,242, but the black had increased to 4,954.2

Biography* As a small child, Sterling moved with his family to Boston in Thomas County, GA. As an adult, he became a farmer, was active in the community, an in 1878 married Susie Foy. During the four year period of 1883-1887, three of Sterling and Susie's five children died young and Susie died as well.
     In 1889, Sterling married Clara Belle Simms of Troup Co., GA, the sister of Charles Simms, a newsagent who had recently relocated to Boston, GA, where Sterling and his family lived. For an unknown reason, the marriage to Clara Belle occurred in Guadalupe Co., TX. Prior to 1900, Sterling and Clara Belle relocated to a turpentine farm on the Suwanee River in White Springs, Hamilton Co., FL. They had five children, and happily, these were all healthy and lived eventually to have families of their own.
     In 1907, Sterling became quite ill and traveled to Dallas, TX. There, he had access to good medical care and was taken care of by his daughter, Mary Foy. He died a short time afterwards in her home and was buried in what, a century later, is deemed to be a beautiful historic cemetery in the heart of Dallas.

Dr. J. T. Culpepper, Prominent Local Citizen, is Dead.
Death Ends Career of One of Thomasville's Most Outstanding Citizens.
Beloved Resident Was Former Mayor, County Official, and Prominent Banker.
     Dr. James Thomas Culpepper gave up a long sustained and valiant fight against the infirmities and weaknesses of old age shortly after midnight and the soul of this well known and for many years popular citizen passed on to its eternal rest. Death came after five or six years of illness that most of the time prevented any activity. He suffered from a heart affection that grew increasingly menacing and for the past two years has been intermittently acute. Death ends the career of one of the most notable citizens in the history of modern Thomasville.
     Funeral services have been arranged for Wednesday at eleven o'clock from the residence on Remington Avenue. Rev. T. F. Callaway pastor of the First Baptist Church will officiate and will be assisted by Rev. Robb White, Jr., of St. Thomas Episcopal Church. Interment will be beside his late wife, who died October 18th 1931, in Laurel Hill Cemetery. Pallbearers will be Messrs. Hansell Watt, George Swift, E. R. Brandon, R. Thomas, William Copeland, F. V. Eidson, C. M. Heeth and C. K. C. Ausley.
     Dr. Culpepper was born in the Summer Hill district of Thomas County, near Boston, February 20th, 1855, son of Gardner and Caroline Jones Culpepper. He secured a rudimentary education in the county schools and later entered the medical school at Louisville, Ky., from which institution he graduated and secured a certificate of medical proficiency. His early practice was done in and near Boston, where he became a greatly beloved physician, utilizing a devotion and faith that was a deciding factor in many a battle that he directed in the fight against death. His patience and skill earned him the affection and confidence of hundreds of people in all walks of life.
     In 1881 he was married to Miss Bamah Thomas Reid of this city at St. Thomas Episcopal Church and they continued to reside in Boston until 1888 when he gave up his medical practice and entered the drug business in Thomasville with Mr. James W. Reid a brother-in-law, the firm being known as Reid and Culpepper.
     Dr. Culpepper became a leading factor in the bank known as the citizens Bank and Trust Company in 1892. He was named President after several years of very successful operation and continued in that capacity until the bank was merged with the Bank of Thomasville in 1924 at which time he was made a vice president of the new institution, then one of the most solid banking houses in the state. He remained in that position until the failure of the bank in 1932. He was connected with a great many local enterprises, business and civic. To them he gave a wealth of strength and support, both personal and financial. He was for several terms Mayor of Thomasville and for one term chairman of the Board of County Commissioners. His high rank in banking circles made him the choice of the Georgia Bankers Association for its president for one term.
     It was in the bank that his activities grew and extended to great heights of usefulness and a vast expanse of contacts with all classes of the citizenry of the county enlarged his sphere of activity. He was a great friend of young men and hundreds of them have attributed their start to success to the manner and the generous spirit of support that he manifested while in the bank. He had a sound business brain and it was utilized not only in the advice he gave to those who were his clients but in many ways and to many civic enterprises in which he took an interest. He was one of the originators and president for many years of the Three Toms hotel project. His contacts with many winter residents and visitors of distinguished standing made him friends of devoted interest for many years. He was the trusted advisor or many and a friend of all.
     His fine appearance, genial personality and originality of thought and action made him an exceptional man, a distinguished and useful citizen and a wise and sound counselor. He loved the friendly intercourse of both business and social life and he drew to him unreservedly many who brought their troubles to him because they knew he would not only give them wise but honest counsel. By nature he was genial and he never felt so keenly his zest in life than when in the company of devoted spirits he was able to take part in the intercourse that is so essential to keen understanding and genuine friendship.
     His Christian experience was with the Baptist Church, which he joined when a young man and to which he gave devoted service for many years as an officer and a member. He was a member of the Rotary Club and the Country Club for several years prior to his incapacitation.
     In the last few years many friends constantly visited him, assured of a cheery welcome and his most amusing and delightful contribution to these cordial associations. Very few men have as unique a personality and bor a more hearty and wholesome interest in the affairs of every type and class of person. Shrewd, astute, sage in his business, cordial, entertaining and gracious in his social contacts he made a mark of rare significance and import in the hearts and lives of hundreds of people, who will regret to know of his death, even though for several years they had been deprived of the pleasure of social contacts due to his illness.
     He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Araminta C. Bailey, Mrs. Noble A. Upchurch of Jacksonville and one son Mr. James t. Culpepper, Jr. There are five grandchildren, Miss Suzanne Upchurch, Misses June, Martha, and Josephine Bailey and Mr. James T. Culpepper III. Dr. and Mrs. Upchurch and Miss Upchurch of Jacksonville were with him when the end came as were members of the family living in Thomasville.

Biography* "Early in his career James Thomas Culpepper, M.D., studied medicine and was a practicing physician of Boston, Georgia, for some years. In 1888 he removed to Thomasville, South Georgia, where he won a widespread reputation as a banker and financier. There were few phases of the life of the city in which he was not prominent, for he was a man to whom leadership came naturally. Inheriting the fine traditions of Southern culture and achievement, he was loyal to high standards of good citizenship and contributed new splendor to a worthy name.
     The Culpepper family was prominent in England before the American progenitors settled in Virginia and descendants thereafter played notable roles in the annals of the South. Dr. James Thomas Culpepper was born at Boston, Georgia, on February 20, 1855, the son of Gardner and Caroline (Jones) Culpepper. His father, born at Warrington, Georgia, moved in later life to Thomas County, where he continued his occupation as a planter. He was a Democrat, affiliated with the Leesburg Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons, of which he was a Past Master, and attended the Baptist Church. He died in 1873 at the age of fifty-eight years. His wife, a native of Ireland [sic], came to New Jersey with her family as a small girl. The family later settled in Warrington, Georgia, where she was wed.
     Dr. Culpepper was given the advantages of a sound academic education before he matriculated at the Louisville (Kentucky) Medical College, from which he was graduated, in 1875, a Doctor of Medicine. Initiating the practice of his profession at Boston, he continued there successfully for some thirteen years. In 1888 he removed to Thomasville to accept the post of cashier in the Citizens Bank and Trust Company, as it came to be known. Ultimately he was elected president of this institution, and was serving in that capacity when it merged with the Bank of Thomasville, after which he was the executive vice-president until he retired in 1932. His reputation as a banker and financier was more than local. At one time he was offered the presidency of the Florida National Bank, of Jacksonville, Florida, but declined. He was a past president of the Georgia Bankers Association, and a popular figure in financial circles of the South.
     Dr. Culpepper was a director of the Thomasville Winter Hotel Company, of the Thomasville Real Estate and Improvement Company, and of the John D. Archibald Memorial Hospital. A supporter of the Democratic party, he was honored with offices that came within the gift of the people. Mayor of Thomasville for a number of years, he was also, at one time, chairman of the board of county commissioners. In connection with the 1930 census, Dr. Culpepper was supervisor of the district which included eleven counties in South Georgia.
     Fraternally he was affiliated with the Free and Accepted Masons, Horab Lodge, No. 281, Boston, and was its Worshipful Master as far back as 1888. He worshipped in the Baptist Church and was generous in his support of its work, and of all agencies founded for the purpose of furthering the welfare and happiness of humanity. Dr. Culpepper always gave a full measure of his time and energies to civic and public service. His personal benefactions were very large and many hold in grateful memory the help he gave them in crises of their lives. His death on December 3, 1935, was mourned as the passing of a first citizen who had left Thomasville and the State richer for his life of achievement.
     In 1880, Dr. James Thomas Culpepper married Bamah Reid, daughter of Dr. James R. and Araminta Reid, both natives of Union Springs, Alabama. Her father, a university graduate in medicine, in 1843, served Crawfordsville, Georgia, as a doctor for many years. He was an intimate friend of Alexander Stephens. It is worthy of note that the wedding of Dr. and Mrs. Culpepper was the second performed in St. Thomas' Episcopal Church, of which she was a member."17

Biography*14 November 2008 Michael Herndon wrote on 14 Nov 2008 and 25 Nov 2008:
     Via a most circuitous route, I came upon your page on Araminta Culpepper Bailey, (I believe, but am not sure, that her middle name was Caroline) which was of interest to me because I purchased her family home in Thomasville, Georgia from her three daughters after Miss Araminta's death... The two wedding dates to Mr. Bailey accord with what I have always understood, that she and Mr. Bailey married, divorced, and married each other a second time. I can cite no authority, just family talk.
     Miss Araminta was a delightful person, and I hope that someone has kept a record of her amusing, irreverent, and keenly perceptive observations. I lost touch with the daughters, June, Martha, and Josephine ("Babe"), none of whom stayed in Thomasville after marriage. Some of Miss Araminta's Reid cousins (through her mother) still live in Thomasville.
     Here's what little I know about Miss Araminta's children:
     1. June married W. Thad McDaniel. They lived in Jesup, Georgia and had a daughter, Ann. I believe there was another daughter, but don't know for sure. June wrote me years ago that she was going through boxes of memorabilia, had found many photographs and negatives of ancestors and the house I bought from them, and would send me copies once she had the negatives developed, but I didn't hear from her again. The author, Bailey White (actually June Bailey White), is June's namesake and kept in touch with her through the years. She would know about the McDaniel children.
     2. Martha married, first, a Mr. Cardwell. They had a son, J. Thomas Cardwell, who is/was a prominent attorney is Orlando, Florida and a daughter, Nancy. Her second husband was Eugene Underwood, a leading admiralty lawyer in New York City. I don't believe they had children.
     3. Josephine ("Babe") married Arthur C. Hoffman. They lived in Glen Ellyn, Illinois and had a daughter and a son that I know of.8
