  • Notes 
    • Charles Culver : He died April 4, 1901 in Corydon, Kentucky from a carbuncle infection. He married Martha M. (Mattie) Butler, the daughter of William Butler and Jane McClure, on October 8, 1862 in Guntersville, Alabama at the home of William J. Butler. The Reverend S.B. Hunter, a Presbyterian Minister, performed the ceremony. Martha M. Butler was born in Rutherford County, North Carolina. (See Butler) Jesse N. Culver's war records indicate the following: J.N. Culver was 5' 10" tall, with black hair, black eyes and dark complexion. He was conscripted into Company H, 4th Regiment (Russell's) Alabama Cavalry on February 11, 1863, at Huntsville, Alabama. He was paid on February 28, 1863 by Major Gibbons and reported on muster roll to April 30, 1863. Jesse's War Record do not reflect engagements. However, his unit was engaged at Unionville, Tennessee on March 4, 1863, Rover, Tenessee on March 13, 1863, and Tullahoma in June 1863. The distance from Huntsville to Rover is approximately 85 miles, roughly a two day trip for a Cavalry Unit at the time. The distance from Huntsville to Rover to Fayetteville where he was captured in August is 120 miles. His Unit's next engagement was not until September 19/20 at Chicamauga, Tennessee. It is, therefore, quite conceivable, though not proven, that Jesse was in the three engagements mentioned above. A note in the Company H, 4th Cavalary records states that "Unit records left behind in Georgia.3" His name appears on the prisoner of war records as follows: Captured August 31, 1863 at Fayetteville, Lincoln County, Tennessee. He was transfered to Nashville, Tennessee, and then to the Louisville, Kentucky Federal Prison. He arrived there on October 10, 1863. The Louisville, Kentucky Register number 9, page 26 shows that he was discharged (paroled) on October 17, 1863 and told to go north of the Ohio River. This infers that he took the oath of allegiance. We find Jesse N. Culver on the 1866 Alabama State census in Guntersville, Alabama with ten persons in his household. Only his name is given on the census record. We do not find him again until June 12, 1880 in Corydon, Kentucky. (There is a James Culver, wife Mattie, daughter Mollie in the 1870 Corydon census.) Their children: The Bible records show that Mollie was born in 1867 in Kentucky. The census records reflect Iowa, and Indiana (or was she born in Alabama before they left for Kentucky?) She had children living in Corydon in 1943. Mollie married W.J. Baker on November 27, 1895 in Corydon, Ky. Henderson County marriage records show that this was her second marriage. She died January 7, 1932 in Corydon. Jim Baker was the informant. Their children: (Inscription on photo says surname Jenkins. Was she married to a Jenkins first? In addition, was Jim Baker her son?) Laura b: December 1891 (his) Mary b: August 1893 (his) Leona b: November 1897 in Kentucky. Edith (date of birth unknown.)
