The Biography of John Culpeper

John Culpeper, representative, was born in Anson county, N.C., in 1761. He was probably a descendant of John Culpeper, surveyor-general of the Carolinas, who laid out the city of Charles Town in 1680. He was a Baptist preacher, a representative in the 10th congress, 1807-09; was unseated, Jan. 2, 1808, and re-elected, February 23, serving the balance of the session. He was a representative in the 13th, 14th, 16th, 18th and 20th congresses, and was defeated for the 15th, 17th and 19th congresses. He was agent of the Baptist state convention of North Carolina. He died in South Carolina at the residence of his son, the Rev. John Culpeper, in 1837.
