Female, #7326, (8 Jun 1897 - 19 Jan 1976)
Father*John Tilman Culpepper
Mother*Azilene Sanford
Birth*8 Jun 1897 Mae was born at Covington Co., Mississippi, on 8 Jun 1897.2 
1910 Census15 Apr 1910 Mae, Irine, Marie and Mellie was listed as a daughter in John Tilman Culpepper's household on the 1910 Census at Covington Co., Mississippi.3 
Married Name10 Aug 1912  As of 10 Aug 1912, her married name was Dearman.4 
Marriage*10 Aug 1912 She married John Benjamin Dearman at Covington Co., Mississippi, on 10 Aug 1912 at age 15.4 
1920 Census1 Jan 1920 Mae, Irine, Marie, Millie, Iva and Leo was listed as a daughter in John Tilman Culpepper's household on the 1920 Census at Seminary, Covington Co., Mississippi.5 
Death of Mother31 May 1929 Her mother Azilene Sanford died on 31 May 1929.6 
Married Namesay 1940  As of say 1940, her married name was Shields. 
Marriagesay 1940 She married (?) Shields say 1940. 
Death of Spouse6 Apr 1940 Her husband John Benjamin Dearman died on 6 Apr 1940.2 
Death of Father16 Aug 1953 Her father John Tilman Culpepper died on 16 Aug 1953.6

Burial*circa 21 May 1976 Her body was interred circa 21 May 1976 at Bethel Missionary Baptist Cemetery, Covington Co., Mississippi.2 
Research note*Apr 2008 It is possible that some records for more than one person have been combined here and/or Mae Demerse Culpepper has been misidentified. The marriage record is ofr a "Mary Culpepper", but of course, that could have been transcribed in error. But May Culpepper appears in John Tilman Culpepper's household as a single woman in both the 1910 and 1920 censuses. While she is shown in 1930 in Covington Co. with J. Benjamin Dearman with six children, ranging up to 14 years of age. However, none of these Dearmans can be found in 1920. More research is needed, and your help with this family would be appreciated.7

Mary E. Rutland

Female, #7331, (19 Oct 1870 - 1 Aug 1902)
Father*Hamilton Cooper Rutland
Mother*Libby Ivy
Birth*19 Oct 1870 Mary was born at Mississippi on 19 Oct 1870. 
Marriage*18 Apr 1896 She married Matthew Martin Culpepper at Simpson Co., Mississippi, on 18 Apr 1896 at age 25.1 
Married Name18 Apr 1896  As of 18 Apr 1896, her married name was Culpepper. 
1900 Census1 Jun 1900 Mary was listed as Matthew Martin Culpepper's wife on the 1900 Census at Covington Co., Mississippi.2 
Death*1 Aug 1902 She died at Covington Co., Mississippi, on 1 Aug 1902 at age 31.3 
Burial*say 3 Aug 1902 Her body was interred say 3 Aug 1902 at Rutland Cemetery, Covington Co., Mississippi
Probate*7 Aug 1902 Mary's will was probated at Covington Co., Mississippi, on 7 Aug 1902. H. C. Rutland, Mary's father, was both named both Administrator and guardian. Petition filed and letters granted. Inventory filed Jan 1, 1903. Attorney for est, W. H. Livingston..3 
Biography* Mary Rutland Culpepper died in 1902 and Matthew remarried another woman also named Mary. However, BLM records show Mary E Culpepper, formerly Mary E. Rutland, patented 160 acres in Covington Co, June 16, 1906. And, it doesn't say, Estate of M. E. Culpepper, dec. (Addendum by Warren Culpepper: Unless the BLM records specifically identify Mary E. Culpepper as the former Mary E. Rutland (which they don't in the online version which I have access to), then the Mary E. Culpepper with the land grant is most likely #3441, the wife of Isaac Jefferson Culpepper, and not the Mary E. who married Matthew Martin Culpepper)

     Matthew and Mary had a daughter, Bertha, b in 1902. This is confirmed by the probate of Mary's brother's estate in 1927. William N. Rutland had 3 heirs. Richard Rutland, Frances Rutland and a neice, Bertha Gentry. Bertha is found in 1920 living next door to Hamilton Cooper Rutland, Mary's father, and in 1930 her youngest son is named Matthew. I am thinking that she named a son after her father, after the death of H. C.3
