Biography* Known as Effie in her youth, Eleanor was only two years of age when her mother. Mattie, died at the time of giving birth to Martha. The girls' father, Tom, was a Baptist preacher who died eight years later.

Effie and Mattie were raised by their uncle and aunt, McCormick and Ella Dickson Neal in McIntosh, Florida, and they appear there in the 1900 census. Ella was their mother's sister. Sadly, in December 1904, Effie and Mattie were orphaned again as McCormick died, having been preceded in death by his wife, Emma, the girls aunt.

Records at Ellis Island reveal that at age 22, Eleanor returned to the US through New York from a trip to England with a group of other young women and an older female chaperone, her cousin Millie Rutherford, all from the Atlanta area.

Eleanor never married, but enjoyed a successful professional career as a writer and editor, including serving as editor of Vogue Magazine. She traveled all over the world, sometimes choosing tramp steamers for passage. She was perhaps best known for writing a children's book of manners, "This Way Please". Quite successful, it was translated into many languages.

During her working years, she lived in both San Francisco and New York City. Upon retirement in the early 1960's she returned to Georgia and lived in an apartment at 50 Terrace Drive, NE, Atlanta.

In her 90's, long after her retirement, she was editor of The Culpepper Letter, a software industry newsletter published by her nephew, Warren Culpepper.

At age 93, while still living independently, she had a stroke at home, where she was discovered a couple of days later by Warren Culpepper. Three weeks later at Piedmont Hospital in Atlanta, she died.

In her will she remembered her niece Florence Saussy and over a dozen other nieces and nephews. She left her body to Emory Medical School, and about one year later her remains were cremated and the ashes laid to rest by her nephew Warren Culpepper in the Garden Cinerarium of St. Patrick's Episcopal Church in Dunwoody, Georgia.11

Biography* Jack Culpepper came to Missouri with his parents when he was one year old. His parents settled south of Teresita in Shannon Co., MO, and he attended school in a log school house when he was five years old. In the winter of 1900 his family moved to Eminence, MO. Jack recalls that the teachers did not spare the rod and said he received 14 whippings in one day. He says one of his teachers told him he wouldn't whip him for 30 days, and he promised the teacher, "There'll be a different school here in 30 days." He married in Emminence, MO, in 1909, when he was 21 years old. He and his family moved to Carter Co., MO in 1927. His first wife died in 1943 and he later married Mrs. Ivy Lane Kent. In his later years, his eyesight failed, but that in no way diminished his interest in the world around him or in meeting and talking with old friends. At a bountiful 73rd birthday supper, held at his home on Current Creek, near the mouth of Rogers Creek in Carter County, the genial honoree remarked, "There's nothing I enjoy better than being with friends and enjoying what little we have to eat."
