Biography* Elias Daniel Culpepper was the oldest son of William Henry and Sarah (Leslie) Culpepper. Since his parents were married in Upson Co., GA and later children are known to have been born in Upson Co., GA, this is where Elias Daniel is believed to have been born. His parents probably moved the family to Meriwether Co., GA when Elias Daniel was about four years old. There he was noted in the 1840 census as one of two males 5-10 years of age in his father's household.

Elias Daniel Culpepper was about seventeen years old when his father again moved the family, this time to Alabama. But once there, Elias Daniel apparently decided that it was time to strike out on his own and joined a wagon train headed to Arkansas. The family of his future wife was apparently in the same wagon train 5 and, in 1854, he married Nancy Clegg in Jefferson Co., AR.

They settled down to farm and raise their family near Pine Bluff, AR and, in 1860, they were noted with four children in the Darysaw P. O. Distirct of Jefferson Co., AR. On current maps, Darysaw appears to be to the west of Pine Bluff near the border between Jefferson County and Grant County but on the Grant County side of the line. It is also to the southeast of Junet, Grant Co., AR where the Clegg's lived. The family was apparently living in an area which was taken into Grant Co., AR which was organized in 1869.6

Elias Daniel Culpepper was 29 years old when the Civil War began. Capos Conley "Chip" Culpepper, II, a great-great-grandson of William Henry and Sarah (Leslie) Culpepper obtained copies of Elias Daniel's war records from the National Archives. They show that "E. D. Culpepper" enlisted in the Confederate Army on March 10, 1862 in Pine Bluff, AR. He served as a private in Company H Govans Arkansas Troops, 2nd Regiment of the Arkansas Infantry. Less than a month after enlisting, Elias Daniel Culpepper was fighting with the Confederate forces at the Battle of Shiloh. Shiloh is near the Tennessee River northwest of Nashville, TN. On 6 Apr 1862, Confederate forces under Gen. Albert Sydney Johnston attacked the Union forces under Ulysses S. Grant.7 Gen. Johnston was mortally wounded the first day of the battle. The battle continued a second day and, after waiting for reinforcements from Gen. Earl Van Dorn which never came, Gen. Beauregard, who had ordered the firing on Fort Sumter in 1861 which began the Civil War, pulled the troops back to Corinth, MS. The Confederates had suffered 10,694 casualties and Gen. Grant 13,047.8

Elias Daniel Culpepper was one of the wounded and he was furloughed home. Mrs. J. F. (Corinne Williams) Hilton wrote of her grandfather:

He was shot the first day, April 6, 1862, got a minie ball in his left shoulder - then had to walk home. Took him about 6 months, his arm was paralyzed, he was terribly ill.

In March of 1863, Elias Daniel Culpepper was discharged from the service. After the war, in the 1870 census, Elias Daniel Culpepper was noted with his wife and children living in "Derasaw," Grant Co., AR, presumably Darysaw, and this appears to be where they remained. Unfortunately, Elias Daniel and Nancy (Clegg) Culpepper have not been located in the 1900 Arkansas census index. They would have been 68 years old.

In 1904, Elias Daniel Culpepper lost his wife of 50 years. A 78 year old Elias Daniel Culpepper is next noted the 1910 census of Jefferson Co., AR living in the household of his son, Malcolm Leslie Luther Culpepper. Elias Daniel apparently traveled a little after this. Mrs. J. M. (Iva Culpepper) Cline noted him in a letter 9 about her father, Thomas Jefferson Culpepper, a son of Rev. Lewis Peek Culpepper:

Back in about 1913 when we first came to Amarillo, one of Dad's cousins came through here and spent the night with us. Dad called him cousin Elias. He and Dad stayed up late and talked about old times and laughed until tears came in their eyes. I remember I stayed up and listened to them. He was jolly and laughed most of the time. He seemed older than Dad, and [said] that his wife had passed away recently. I think of him often.

Elias Daniel Culpepper died in 1914, at the age of 82.

Biography* Mary Bathsheba was a daughter of William Henry and Sarah (Leslie) Culpepper. She was born in Upson Co., GA but, when she was about three years old, her parents moved the family to Meriwether Co., GA where she was noted in 1840 census records as a female 5-10 years of age in the household of her father. The family moved again when Mary Bathsheba was 15 years old, this time to Alabama. Within months, Mary Bathsheba's mother died.

When Mary Bathsheba was 17 years old, she married, Joseph John Francis Dean and the young couple was noted in 1850 census records in Randolph Co., AL. The couple is next noted with their five children in the 1860 census records of Wesobulga P. O. District in Randolph Co., AL. This was probably near Wesobulga Creek which appears to be northwest of Wadley, AL on what is now the border between Clay and Randolph Co., AL although it would have been in Randolph Co., AL in 1860. Their lives were interrupted by the Civil War and, after the War, the family is noted in the Louina P. O. District (now Wadley, AL) in the 1870 census.

Mary Bathsheba bore eleven children between 1852 and 1878 and she made a lasting impression on at least one of her older sons. Mrs. Ted (Estelle German) Canter reported 2 that her grandfather, Fletcher Dean, had told her that Mary Bathsheba (Culpepper) Dean "threw a butcher knife at him and cut a deep gash in his head, because he refused to pick black berries for a pie...." Mary Bathsheba's husband is next noted in 1873 in Wesobulga Masonic records so the family apparently remained in the area near the borders of what are now Clay and Randolph Co., AL until at least then. However, the family has not been located in 1880 census records so it might have been around this time that the family moved to Sand Mountain in Jackson Co., AL to an area just across the county line from Henegar, DeKalb Co., AL. The community became known as Dean's Chapel and was apparently near the little town of Dutton, Jackson Co., AL since Mary and her husband were noted living in "Duttons Beat" in Jackson Co., AL in the 1900 census.

Mary Bathsheba (Culpepper) Dean lost her husband of 54 years in 1905. She is next noted in 1910 census records of Jackson Co, AL living in the household of her son-in-law, Olin Wright. She was recorded as having had eleven children, eight of whom were living in 1910. Mary Bathsheba (Culpepper) Dean died in 1914 at the age of 81 and was buried at Dean's Chapel.

Burial* His body was interred at Dean's Chapel Cemetery, Jackson Co., Alabama. 
Biography* Joseph John Francis Dean was the son of John Wesley and Mary Elizabeth (Culpepper) Dean. He appears to have been called John Francis Dean or John J. F. Dean. Since his parents were married in Monroe Co., GA and this is where John J. F. Dean was noted as a male under five years of age in the household of his parents in the 1830 census records, this is probably where John J. F. Dean was born. However, by 1832, John J. F. Dean's parents had moved the family to Talbot Co., GA since his father was noted in 1832 Cherokee Land Lottery records 3 as being from "Mizell's" District in Talbot Co, GA. John J. F. Dean was also noted in 1840 census records of Talbot Co., GA as a male 10-15 years of age in the household of his father so this is where he was raised. However, based on the birth states recorded in census records of John J. F. Dean's younger brothers and sisters, sometime after 1840 and before 1843, his parents apparently moved the family to Alabama.

At the age of 22, John J. F. Dean married Mary Bathsheba Culpepper in Randolph Co., AL and this is where they settled down to farm and raise a family. November 11, 1851, "John F. Dean" purchased a 39.86 acre lot 4 to the west of Louina and present day Wadley, AL and a short distance west of the William Henry Culpepper and John J. Culpepper land but just to the east of what is now the Pleasant Hill Church. In 1860 census records, the family is noted in the Wesobulga P. O. District of Randolph Co., AL. This post office was not noted in Randolph Co., in the 1887 - 1888 Alabama State Gazetter & Business Directory. Wesobulga Creek, which is northwest of present day Wadley, AL on the border between Randolph Co., AL and what is now Clay Co., AL, can be noted on current maps. It was to the south of this that "John F. Dean" purchased 80.27 acres of land on August 1, 1860. 5 But after the Civil War, in 1870 census records, the family is noted back in Township 22 in the Louina P. O. District now Wadley, AL. However, July 19, 1873, J. F. Dean is noted in Masonic records as affiliated with Weathers Lodge #390 of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons at Weosobulga, AL.6

The family has not been located in 1880 census records. It is possible that it was around this time that John J. F. Dean moved his family to Sand Mountain near the border between Jackson and DeKalb Co., AL. The area where they settled became known as Dean's Chapel community because John J. F. Dean donated land where a church and school were built.7 The community is in Jackson Co., AL on Sand Mountain and across the county line from Sylvania and Henegar which are in DeKalb Co., AL. The community is apparently near the little town of Dutton, Jackson Co., AL since the family was noted living in "Duttons Beat" in Jackson Co., AL in the 1900 census.

John J. F. Dean died in 1905 at the age of 77. Brother Eugene Smith, Sr. of Section Lodge #565 of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons in Jackson County, AL officiated at his funeral.6 He is buried at Dean's Chapel and Mrs. D. D. (Aubie Mae Dean) Dean wrote:8

"The annual decoration up there is always the fourth Sunday in May."

Wayne Dean wrote 9 to Mary Lillian (Butler) Pierce of another cemetery in the area which seems to be related to the Dean family:

There is an old, small, unmarked cemetery between Sylvania and Henegar, on the right side of the road, up on a bank where some of the Dean members are buried but most of the markers are not legible. Later ones are at Dean's Chapel.

John James Elliott's father apparently died when John was a child and John was noted as a male age 5-10 years old living with mother in the 1840 census of Monroe Co., GA.

Sometime before the 1848 marriage of his older sister, Martha, John James Elliott's mother, Sarah, moved the family to Meriwether Co., GA. This is where the teenager, John James Elliott, emerges in the 1850 census records in his mother's household. In the early 1850's, possibly before the death of her father, John Culpepper, Sarah (Culpepper) Elliott moved the family again, this time to Randolph Co., AL. There, John James Elliott married Ann Malvina Culpepper in 1855 and he is next noted as a farmer in the 1860 census of Randolph Co., AL.

John James Elliott was 28 years old when the Civil War began. Based on his death date in 1863, he is presumed to have died in the Civil War but no record of his service has yet been found. John James Elliott was 30 years old at the time of his death.
