Biography* Subject: Small World: Culpepper's restaurant in St. Louis
Date: Sat, 5 Jun 1999 22:19:08 -0400
From: Warren Culpepper

     This weekend I had the good fortune to meet some new Culpepper cousins at a reunion in the Ozarks region of Missouri....
     After the reunion today, I drove back up to St. Louis to spend the nightbefore my flight back to Atlanta Sunday morning. I remembered that in the Places section of Culpepper Connections, I had posted info on a Culpepper's Restaurant in St. Louis. With a little time on my hands, I decided to go to Culpepper's for dinner tonight.
     I asked my waitress if she knew anything about the owners. My question was aimed at further improving our Missouri Culpepper info. She said she knew nothing other than the owners were a group of businessmen, that they had several locations in St. Louis, and the chain had been around for a long time.
     As I was eating a delicious Chicken Rueben sandwich and sipping a beer, she came back to me smiling with a framed newspaper clipping. Written in 1971, the clipping described the founding and early days of this well-known and popular St. Louis institution. But then my heart fell as I saw that the restaurant was not founded by a Culpepper, but by someone named Foy Culpepper Waldron in 1935.
     I mentioned to my waitress my disappointment, but she astutely pointed out that perhaps Foy Culpepper Waldron's mother was a Culpepper. I agreed to the possibility and started thinking about all the Missouri names I had seen in the last couple of days. But I struck out. There were no Foys and no Waldrons.
     But the food and beer were good, so I ordered another cold one and pondered this a bit further. I thought of the irony that my great-grandfather's first wife was named Susie Elizabeth Foy. But they were Georgia and Florida Culpeppers. Then, out of the blue, I recalled that one of the daughters of my great-grandfather was named Mary Foy Culpepper (born 1879) and she married Roman Simeon Waldron (in 1898). Voila! While I personally knew nothing about my Great Aunt, Mary Foy Culpepper Waldron, or her descendants, I checked our web site records tonight, and sure enough, she died in St. Louis in 1949. So the founder of Culpepper's in St. Louis (Foy Culpepper Waldron) had to have been her son, and that makes him my first cousin, once removed.
     Of course, since he's long deceased and his family is no longer involved with the restaurant, that's no big deal other than the fact that I wasn't even thinking about discovering such a close relative when I walked in. Genealogical searches can lead to interesting surprises.
     As a closing note, all of us Culpeppers can take a little pride that he chose to name the restaurant, not after his own name, but after that of his mother: a Culpepper.
     Still chuckling over the discovery, Warren Culpepper

P.S. If you're ever in St. Louis, I do recommend the restaurant. I thought the meal was great even before I discovered the close connection.
