Biography* Edward Culpeper must have been the eldest son and have died without issue in his father's lifetime, for on the death of John Culpeper in 1565 the Memorandum Roll, L. T. R., Trinity, 12 Eliz., rot. 41, contains an account of the arguments put forward by Thomas Culpeper when called upon to prove his title to the possession of the advowson of Ardingly, on the death of his father, John. Thomas Culpeper traces the descent of the advowson from the time of the suppression of the Monasteries, and then mentions a deed dated 1 Apr 1553 (7 Edward VI), which records the purchase of the advowson by his father, John, and his son, Edward.
