| Biography* | | Jack Culpepper came to Missouri with his parents when he was one year old. His parents settled south of Teresita in Shannon Co., MO, and he attended school in a log school house when he was five years old. In the winter of 1900 his family moved to Eminence, MO. Jack recalls that the teachers did not spare the rod and said he received 14 whippings in one day. He says one of his teachers told him he wouldn't whip him for 30 days, and he promised the teacher, "There'll be a different school here in 30 days." He married in Emminence, MO, in 1909, when he was 21 years old. He and his family moved to Carter Co., MO in 1927. His first wife died in 1943 and he later married Mrs. Ivy Lane Kent. In his later years, his eyesight failed, but that in no way diminished his interest in the world around him or in meeting and talking with old friends. At a bountiful 73rd birthday supper, held at his home on Current Creek, near the mouth of Rogers Creek in Carter County, the genial honoree remarked, "There's nothing I enjoy better than being with friends and enjoying what little we have to eat." |
