Culpepper Family Tree Charts
Descendants of
Joseph Culpepper of Edgecombe Co., NC

Joseph Culpepper of Edgecombe Co., NC is the son of Robert Culpepper, and the grandson of Henry Culpepper of Lower Norfolk, who is believed to be the progenitor of most American Culpeppers. Links to charts depicting the branches of Joseph's descendants will be found below. Sons are indented under their fathers. the charts start at the named individual and go forward in time to the present day. All of the lines for which charts have been created are believed to have one or more living male Culpepper descendants. Depicted are all of their known Culpepper descendants as well as a few non-Culpeppers.

DNA Testing and Notation. For those family branches where a member is contained in the chart and is also a member of our DNA project, we have appended the members DNA Kit # following the lowest-level family-branch name (These numbers have meaning only to the publisher's of Culpepper and Associates and are included here only for our convenience). Following the kit number, we append in parentheses the working name of their DNA subgroup. If the test has been ordered but not yet returned to the lab, we place "Out" in parentheses. If the lab has not yet provided test results, we place "In the Lab" in parentheses.

DNA Signature. A unique DNA signature has been found for the descendants of Joseph Culpepper. In general, they have the Culpepper modal haplotype exhibited by the descendants of Robert Culpepper, the father of Joseph. However, with Joseph's descendants, DYS 464d = 15, and not 16 as is found in the modal haplotype.

Printing. The charts can be printed if you use Internet Explorer 7.0, but not earlier browsers.
