Biography* "My mother was always told that Everett and Edd were twins. (I have a photo of the two of them as adults.) She received a letter from her first cousin (John) Leland Culpepper (written February, 1969) stating that the were the survivors of tripletts - a girl died at birth. The information/biography for Edd gives that "fact," but Everett's does not. Also, Edd and Everett's years of birth differ in "the tree" by 4 years. It's very confusing; my grandmother gave Everett's date of birth as January 2, 1883 on his death certificate information. I'm not sure if the Edna indicated with circa 1883 might be the girl that died at birth."
