Biography* From More Reflections, Personal Stories of Earlier Life in Geneva, Florida, Geneva Historical Society. (Author of article unknown)
The invitations for the wedding of Miss Kitty Wells Sieg and Mr. Carroll Wesley Culpepper were issued for seven-thirty o'clock on the evening of January 21, 1912. As all guest and wedding party members were assembled, the minister, the Reverend Mr. E. Lee Smith, pastor of the Geneve and Oviedo Baptist Churches, requested that the wedding service begin at seven as he had a dark, cold night for the long buggy drive back to his home in Oviedo.
Miss Sieg and Mr. Culpepper were united in marriage in a simple ceremony at the home of the bride's mother, Mrs. Khadra Mercer Sieg. (The site of the Sieg residence will be remembered as the former Graddick Place. The late Mr. and Mrs. Graddick were parents of Mrs. H.H. Pattishall and grandparents of Henry Fletcher Jones.)
The bride wore an ice blue satin floor length gown with an inserted yoke outlined with blue silk dep fringe, as was the hipline of the skirt. Accessories were white; silk stockings, buttoned high top pique shoes, and long gloves.
The groom wore a dark blue serge suit, white shirt, black tie and black shores.
Following the ceremony, the guest were served a light supper of chicken salad, crackers, stuffed olives, Jell-o with whipped cream, wedding cake, fruit punch, and coffee. (This was the first time stuffed olives and Jell-o were served at any Geneva social function. 'Tis said the groom liked the jell-o, but suffered noticeably the lone olive he swallowed.)
Those attending were: Mrs. Khadra Mercer Sieg, mother of the bride; Mrs. Margaret "Maggie" Sieg Etheredge, bride's sister, and her son, Emmett Culver Etheredge, Jr; brother-in-law and sister. Mr. and Mrs. David Speer (Lannie); Mr. John "Jack" Vernon Wicks (married Margaret Sieg Etheredge in February, two weeks later.) Mr. and Mrs. Frank Jones (Carolyn Louise Harris Culpepper), stepfather and mother of the groom, and their daughter, Miss Della Jones.
(On Monday morning, January 22nd, Postmaster H.H.Pattishall, announced that when he arrived at the post office he was amazed to find the largest amount of mail ever posted in those early days - stacked on the floor ready for posting, announcements of the wedding the previous evening).
Since the wood burning stove was not delievered on Saturday as promised, plans to spend the night in their new home (rented and furnished by the groom without assistance from the bride) were changed. They stayed at the Sieg residence. Monday morning Carroll was off to work as foreman of the Chase and Company Packing House on Lake Harney, later the old Pavilion. That night after dinner the entire families met at the new home, known as the Hayes Place, to inspect the now completely furnished house since the stove had arrived that afternoon and had been installed by Carroll and Friends as they returned to their homes from work.
The two-story house consisted of front porch, a combination living and dining room, kitchen, and bedroom on the first floor, two bedrooms and hall upstairs.
Houses were furnished quite differently in those days. In the entrance hall was a hat rack with mirror attached to a storage chest topped with a bench with arms that provided extra seating for those special occasions. Living and dining room boasted a large oak table with six chairs, a sideboard (buffet) and four oak rocking chairs placed upon an "art square" (9 X 12 rug). The kitchen had a built-in table, and the wood burning stove with a big reservior and a warming oven. The pantry was lined with shelves, completely stocked. The downstairs bedroom had a brass double bed, oak dresser and washstand on which was kept, a wash bowl (lavatory), pitcher, soap dish with lid, and a small pitcher and cup for drinking water. On the floor, standing beside the washstand, was waste jar with lid. These accessories were of matching blue china with dark centered daisies and were referred to as a "toilet set". An oak chair and a round table with lamp completed this room.
In the upstairs bedroom was a white enameled bed with brass trimmed post, oak dresser and washstand, and the "toilet set" of white china decorated with gold.
All windows had green shades. Ecru voile curtains with sides bordered with blue flowers and green leaves hung in the living-diningroom.
The bride's inspection tour was just completed. As the couple descended the stairs a great noise was heard. Cowbells ringing, spoons banging on pots and pans, cans rattling...the "shiveree" began! This was the then traditional housewarming and all the young, both single and married couples of Geneva and friends from nearby attended.

After the congratulations, the fun and games, sisters of the newlyweds served home baked cakes and hot chocolate to the merrymakers and well wishers. Another home established, two old southern families united, the Siegs and the Culpeppers, one."

From the 1966-67 Geneva Historical and Genealogical Society Year Book:
"April 16th was a special date at Fort Lane Park: the last block and nail joined roof and rafters to the concrete slab floor, and the first unit of our long-hoped-for pavilion was completed. This building is a gift of the Sieg families, and is to be called THE SIEG PAVILION. It commerates sixty (60) years of one or more members of this family living on Lake Herney or in Geneva."

From Reflections - Stories of Earlier Life in Geneva, Florida, Geneva Historical Society.

Kitty Wells Sieg Culpepper Allen --
"I have been in Geneva for some years now. I came here when I was a young girl with my father and mother and two brothers. We stayed at the Doctor Freeman Pattishall place for a few months. Then Mr. Huddleston came to us and wanted us to go on his place free of rent so as to keep bees out of his orange grove. So we built over there and before our furniture came from Georgia, we had only one bed in the house. I slept on one side of the quilt and covered with the other on the floor and we really had a time trying to keep things going until our things came from Georgia.
We used a dry goods box for a dresser. We had an old broken mirror on it and used the inside of it for storing our linens and we kept our little trinkets that we did have with us on this. We had one large table in the room and in the kitchen we had an old fashioned wood stove with a reservoir and an oven warmer. We had a few dishes and two kerosene lamps for the whole house. Well! I can remember very well that we had a great deal of trouble in getting our furniture brought out from Sanford, but eventually it arrived. Then we were very happy to have it.
Then I know that my father and brothers worked at the hammock planting beans and potatoes, tomatoes, etc. My mother and I would go down occasionally and help them out. You know the men folks just can't get along without we women.
Oh Yes! I guess I should say that my brother Willie Lee Sieg and Joe Sieg came down with papa and mama and I, and we lived there at the Huddleston place. I recall one afternoon I was playing barefooted, throwing an orange way up in the air and catching it, if I could. One time I missed it and I saw something shinning in the sand. I thought, oops, I better pick that piece of tin up and throw it in the lake to keep from cutting my foot on it, and guess what it was, a silver dollar! Boy! Did I think I was a rich gal! We so seldom had whole dollars so these things all come back as we stop to think about the days of long ago.
There was a packinghouse at every grove. No one ever thought of such a thing as carrying the fruit to someone else's packinghouse for shipment. I can remember that I was out in the packinghouse, scrubbing grapefruit to prepare them for shipping, when friends came riding by wanting to know if I could go with them on a picnic. So my mother allowed me to go and we had a great picnic down on Lake Harney. Lake Harney was our focal point for picnics in those days, and on every Friday afternoon a crowd of people came down. We went swimming. I had my first bathing suit and do you know what? My mother wouldn't let me go swimming without hose on. Can you understand that now, these days? Ah! Know I bet you can't. Well, I noticed that my other friends were not wearing hose. I felt terribly embarrassed with my mother and sister but if I went swimming I had to have the hose. So I walked in sand with them and wore them out so I couldn't wear them anymore. Then I got to go without hose because she couldn't afford to keep buying them for me.
Well, we had wonderful times camping in tents and palmetto shacks up on Lake Harney, way up at the head where my brother Willie Lee Seig lives at the present time. We had palmetto shacks, one for the men folks, one for the ladies. There was an open palmetto shed for the kitchen. Instead of moving our whole bedstead out there, we just took the springs and mattress and put them on the floor...Oh, another thing, our pots and pans commenced rattling out there and, whoop, we had to get up and run the coons away. They were eating up our food in our pantry. So, again, we would go back to bed and maybe we would wake up the next morning with an old owl screeching at the top of his voice nearby.
And another thing I can remember, when we first came to Geneva, if I can go back again. When we first arrived on Lake Harney my sister and brother-in-law had a tent with a floor in it for their living quarters, but they had the palmetto shacks too and they had built an extra palmetto shack for papa and mama to sleep in. And I had never seen such things before. They were certainly a curiosity but they kept the water off us when it rained and the sun off in the daytime and the dampness at night. We were very grateful for them but, believe you me, we had to sleep under nets. The mosquitoes were bad and around this camp, which was a cluster of several palmetto shacks and tents, was a great fence made out of, of all things, fish nets and palmetto logs. They put one log on top of another, up about three logs or maybe four logs, and then put stakes up and hung palmetto, I mean hung fish nets all around this, making an enclosure so as to keep their chickens out and the hogs out because hogs ran wild in those days and of course it helped to keep some animals out, not all.
And I can remember on the cold, windy days, we would go behind the ridge and make a fire in a palmetto stump so as to keep warm. I remember once as we were walking along, I was whittling on a piece of palmetto and our fire had gone out sometime before and I just stepped right in that palmetto hole and burned my foot. I had to hop home, just hippity hop home on one foot and some palmeto sticks that I used for crutches. We had a time when we were going by the Smith house on Lake Geneva. A bunch of children were out playing in the yard. One of them says. "Who is that?" "I don't know". Oh! That's that Lake Harney crowd, I knows them". So, we had a great fun over that. Going on home we arrived home that night and found everything satisfactory at home...
When we first came to Geneva we, being Baptist, had no church to go to as most of the Baptist that had been here before us had either passed away or moved from the community. So, we immediately went to the Methodist church, which was the only one at that time in this community. We never missed any services anymore than if it had been our own denomination. We were very happy to attend and enjoyed it. And, as usual, always spoke to the elderly people. It's always been sometime that I could not resist, was trying to make them feel welcome and at home. I particularly remember Grandpa and Grandma Baker being so delighted that I had spoken to them, me, as a young girl. So, they told me one day, "Kitty Wells. you are the only girl that has ever spoken to us at church and we certainly do appreciate it, and I want you to know that since you have been speaking to us, others have too." And they were so delighted over it until they had me come and spend a whole day with them at their home, and I did enjoy it very much. And in attending these services we never thought of missing a single service if we could possibly avoid it.
But, eventually other Baptists moved in and my father, being a preacher, was asked to form a new church, to reorganize the old church, perhaps I should say. So, on one Sunday afternoon, but I do not recall the date, all the Baptist in the community with the children that they had raised since they had a church here, came to our house and we reorganized the Geneva Baptist Church. This building was already over by the cemetery. We had a large building with a pulpit, the rostrum, and we had no organ, of course, but we managed to raise enough cash to get one. My father was to preach once a month until we were financially able to get a pastor. So, in those days, the Methodist had their preaching on the second and fourth Sundays. So, we decided not to interfere with them, we would have ours on the first Sunday of each month. We were not financially able to have services more often.
I can recall that we would get up, say on the first Sunday morning and go to Sunday School and preaching at our church, go home and immediately after lunch we would go to the Methodist church to Sunday School and Epworth League, going from there to our church for our night service. And on the second Sunday, we would get up and go to the Methodist Sunday School and church, then home for our lunch, then to our Sunday School in the afternoon and then back to the Methodist church to their Epworth League and preaching. Would the young people of this day be doing that much and going to church? Could they think of making so many trips to a church? And, in our meeting in those days, we were walking, we were not riding, and it was at least two miles from our home to the church, back home again, then at least two miles to the other church and back home again. So, you see we really put some foot tracks in those days to get to our churches.
After awhile we were able to have a pastor and eventually we had him on the first and third Sundays. Then we kept on going to both churches at all times. Finally our church was moved from the cemetery, over into the hard road, near the schoolhouse. We were there for several years. Then we sold our building to the colored people and bought what was known as a Woman's Club which was built during the big boom. I remember that we only had one service in this building before it was burned. From then on, we held our meetings in a tent until we were able to build again. This little church that we have at Geneva was begun in those days. And now we are growing and have our Sunday School rooms and are planning for other extensions a little later. I think that is about all I can say for the way we did our church going in those days. Now let me back up a few years and say why we came to Geneva.
My sister, Mrs. David Speer, (Annie Sieg Speer) and her husband were on Lake Harney fishing. He did the fishing with his brother-in-law. So, we camped there a while. Then we went into the Doctor Pattishall house as I mentioned before.
But I want to tell you something about my sister, Mrs. Speer. She was a great seamstress, loved sewing and embroidering and all. I want you to know that due to her generosity a good many children would not had privilege of going to school or been able to have decent clothes to wear to school. The good friends of Mrs. Speer would give her clothing and she would make them over into their latest styles for these children to wear to school. I can recall one little girl that wanted to go to the 4-H Club meeting at Tallahassee, I believe it was, but anyway she had no clothing. So Mrs. Speer outfitted the girl from top to bottom, even to a bathing suit she needed to have on this journey. So, all in all, she was outfitted for this great occasion. Then on other occasions she made dresses and put them in a little chest at the school where my brother and his wife taught. And any child that had come to school on a rainy day, got wet on the way to school, could go into this chest and get clothing and have their clothes dried and then they could put them back on before they went home in the afternoon. Mrs. Speer loved doing these things for other people. She was also a wonderful nurse and did many, many ,mercy works in her life here in Geneva, The community has been so grateful to having her as their friend and neighbor. To work with them and for them and she enjoyed it all, even until the very last. She was 89 years of age when she passed away. Even after 85 she was doing this sewing and making dresses for little tots that were unable to have nicer dresses.
I would like to tell you one other little thing that happened in our community. There was quite a little canasta club around. I don't know whether you people are cognizant of the fact but our elderly citzens have rapport here. Miss Ada Rogers, who is 89 years of age, and her sister, Miss Isabelle Rogers, who will soon be 84, Mrs. Allen who will soon be 70 and Miss Meta LeFils who is about 65 and we have a great club going once a week. We just couldn't say we made mistakes. We just had a lot of fun and that is what it is all about, now isn't it? Then we serve a nice refreshment and we all enjoy being together for the afternoon. We don't do a lot of gossiping as people seem to think is carried on at these clubs, for we are too busy planning our next move, and I want you to know that each one of us enjoy being together. I think you ought to get in lots of fun if you could just hear us without our knowing about it."

From Siegs in Eight Generation

"Kip" was the tomboy - and why not with brothers Wilie Lee and Joe plus cousin Sieg Holmes, Sr. next door for ball games and all the competitions every season? It was her morning's chore to pick salad tomatoes and blackberries for each summer day's dinner. As "baby" of the family she had many bosses, and was not considered to be grown-up by her elders until she married. Suddenly overnight long matronly dresses from her trousseau replaced those schoolgirl shorter length fashions of the day. The new wardrobe was purchased by her mother and sisters (Lonnie and Mag) while she window-shopped reluctantly - awaiting their selections.
Kittie Wells' nimble fingers sewed, crocheted, tatted, wove pine needle baskets and trays, and handpainted on velvet - all the craft rages of the day. Church, school, activities, dinners at The Hall, surgical dressings unit during World War I, the thousand demands of an ever growing family (just as it had for all those wives preceeding her, and since in the march of generations across the accumulating pages of history). Other activities no longer volunteer after the Great Depression descended o'er all the land: telephone operator, postmaster, then Star Route service for Geneva, Oviedo, and Sanford post offices. Busy years. A long illness of her husband, terminal. The lonely years of widowhood. At thirty-nine, too young to tread the long decades ahead alone. Remarriage. World War II. Three sons (all she had) and sons-in-law (her daughters' husbands) in Military service. Volunteer Civilian Plane Watch - nightly vigils after working at the post office all day. Finally, thank God, the watching and waiting was over - all safetly home at last. During this time home canning was the order of every hour available, and this activity continued for a year after "the boys" were home. Resigned as postmaster. Enjoyed a trip to New York the better to see her country and visit with her step-young adults. They liked Florida, too, so there was visiting during vacations with picnicking, swimming and sailing at The Farm on Buck Lake where the log cabin nestles under the tall pines and large oaks. Welcoming grandchildren became priority number one and "Grandmuvie" was always there. Nursing at the Harry Anna Home for Crippled Children and later at Orange Memorial Hospital, Orlando, hustled the years onward. Retirement, 1960. Kittie Wells had always been a wonderful cook; she has attained the rank of expert in baking. Cakes, pies, cobblers - these are her specialty. Community service includes hostessing with a friend for the annual Vacation Bible School at her Church; Guidance Committee of the Geneva Historical Committee; Geneva Historical and Genealogical Society Board of Electors. 1975-76; Sandwich Chairman for Saturday Supper at the annual May Festival of this organization for ten (10) years; she was among those there each day helping with the building of The Sieg Pavilion where you are expected for annual Sieg Reunions; each week she supervises the arranging of the Wednesday Bunch for Lunch - a gathering of the area kin for a food and gab-fest; all summer of 1975 she served on the committee that planned and staged the Centennial Celebration of the First Baptist Church of Geneva honoring the first "gatherers" of this church which included your grandparents (or maybe they were your great-grandparents, or uncle and aunt, or great uncle and aunt, or cousins), the Rev. George Harrison and Khadra Ann Mercer Sieg, and their son and his wife, Willie Lee and Mayme McLain Sieg....all who had so nobly served to the glory of God. Still active at eighty-one, but slowing her pace. She drives - cruising at 50 instead of 65 MPH as she did in yesteryears."1
