      Dr. Charles L. Culpepper, Sr. recorded the child's name as "Bea Culpepper" in his GENEALOGY OF FRANCIS G. CULPEPPER. The following record is from p. 52 of Lavaca Co., TX - Cemetery Records Vol. I by Sammy Tise: CULPEPPER, Bee_____19 Jan 1881_____12 Mar 1893_____On marker with Ira
      Unfortunately, the 1890 census, which is the only one which would have recorded information about this child, was burned. Mrs. C. M. (Pat Burgin) Lee wrote 2 Nov 1994: "Bee" was the name given to Ida Gertrude Culpepper when Ira [Ida's older brother] tried to say "baby" & it came out only "Bee." They both died of spiral meningitis two weeks apart.
