  • Notes 
    • Note on Find a Grave:
      Son of William Hollis Culver and Hannah Gordon Culver. His first marriage was to Martha Riebelin on April 27, 1854 in Montgomery Co., Kentucky. They were the parents of six children: George Nicholas, Randall Jefferson, Frank P., Benjamin Franklin, William Hollis, and Rachel Riebelin Culver. Martha died January 20, 1866.

      William's second marriage was to Neosha Jane "Noty" Gibson on June 3, 1867 in Shawneetown, Gallatin Co., Illinois. She was the daughter of John Gregory Gibson and Mahala Caroline Busby Gibson.

      William H. and "Noty" were the parents of thirteen children: John Deforest, Thomas Fagan, Laura Magie, Maggie J., Fagan, Vannie, Ella, Martha Belle, Bertha, Leslie Bernard, Mary, Lelia S., and Robert Able Culver.

      William's last child, Robert, was born in 1888 and sometime between then and 1900 William and Noty either separated or divorced. Noty is living with several of her children on the 1900 U.S. Federal Census in Corydon, Kentucky and states on the census form that she is divorced. On the 1910 census it states she is widowed. Unsure what to make of this right now and will research this some more.
