Research note* There are significant discrepancies in the dates of death for both Walter Boston Culpepper and his wife Ruby Blanche Morse Culpepper. For Walter, the cemetery record says 1969, but the FL Death Index says 1960. For Ruby, the cemetary record says 1949 but the FL death index says 1941. We have assumed here that the Flroda Death Index is correct, and in the case of Ruby's death, this assumption fits the fact that Walter divorced Mary in 1946. If you can confirm any of these dates please contact Warren Culpepper.6
