Biography* 10 Jun 1757, Norfolk Tithables, Western Branch Precinct, "Robart Culpeper & Rubin Culpeper, 2 tithes." 8 Sep 1764 -- Deed Bk 22, p 5. William and Elizabeth Bunting of the Parish of Portsmouth to Reuben Culpepper, fifty acres in the West Branch of the Elizabeth River bounding Richard Taylor, for eighteen years lease. William Bunting obliged to build a dwelling house 20 by 16 with planked sides and wooden chimney and to plant 100 apple trees, etc.... Wit: William Bayley, Richard Ballantine, David Davis 1778 -- Norfolk Tithables, from Portsmouth along South Side of the Western Branch, Reuben Culpepper, one tithe. Reuben would have been about 37 years old in 1778, and this is the last reference to him in Norfolk tithe records. Thus, he probably died around 1779.

However, there was in the 1782 Census of Lower Norfolk Co., VA an "Rd. Culpepper" who otherwise is unaccounted for. It is conceivable that this was Reuben Culpepper as there were no other R. Culpeppers known to have been born between 1690 and 1770 who cannot be ruled out for other reasons.
