Biography* | | Cathy Culpeper wrote on 23 Mar 2010: "According to genealogical information retrieved in England by a genealogy researcher hired by Ernest Culpeper, the first known Culpeper in India was Edmund Culpeper, father of Charles. Edmund had been a member of the army of the British East India Company, which was headquartered in Madras. Edmund would have arrived around the middle of the 18th century. In 1757 he married Joanna, a native woman. "Madras had been developed by the East India Company in the 17th century as a British naval base, and port. But by the 18th century, a small army was also quartered in Madras. This army eventually was headed by Robert Clive and became the military instrument by which the British gained ascendency in India, battling the French and eventually gaining commercial and political control of India by installing friendly local rulers. "It was the custom to encourage a number of these army men to remain in India, instead of returning to England, and economic and employment incentives were offered. Often they retired from the army to take on the work of supply and services to the army, sometimes marrying Indian women who had become members of the Church of England through conversion. In this way, families like the Culpeper's established roots in India and maintained strong connections to the army in Madras and after 1858 to the British Raj, when the East India Company was dissolved and the Raj established."1 |
