notes

Elizabeth's ancestry is uncertain. She might possibly have been the daughter of Thomas White (1599 - 1665) who is known to have had children John, Elizabeth, and Thomas. John White called Bartholomew Ingolbritson "my loving friend" and he was also godfather to Henry Culpepper Jr. In the following deed, John sells part of his father's land to Henry Culpepper:

Since Elizabeth also signed the transaction, this land may have belonged to her from an inheritance prior to marriage, or from a previous marriage.4  Deed 1672  She granted a deed to Richard Philpott in 1672 at Lower Norfolk Co., Virginia,

1672 -- Lower Norfolk Co. Deed Bk E, p 158. Henry Culpepper to Richard Philpott, 100 a. in consideration of ye land of 1145 pounds of tobacco... to Richard Philpott... land called Broad Neck along Church Creek.. to run into ye run toward ye swamp... whereas said Culpepper with the consent of his wife Elizabeth. Signed: Henry Culpepper. Since Elizabeth had to consent, this land probably belonged to her from her previous marriage.
