Ransford Whittier Culver
My father was George Milton Culver b 17 May 1917 to Evalina Brewster Auld and Ransford Whittier Culver, my gparents.I can not seem to get any further back in our family tree. except in a broken format.
I do know that Margaret Holton, born About 1839 in Ireland and married George Whittier Culver from New York. George was born about 1838 in New York and died about 1890 in Republic CO, Kan
I beleive the George Culver in Kansas is a brother of G W Culver. George M. Culver, who is now serving his third term as county attorney of Cloud county, was born near Albany, New York, July 6, 1866. He is the third of seven sons. His parents were George W. and Margaret H. (Holton) Culver. His father was a native of the state of New York. He was a carpenter by trade, but emigrated to Republic county, Kansas, where he farmed until his demise in 1890.
Mr. Culver's mother was born near Cork, Ireland. She died in 1890, being an interval of only three months between his parents' death.
Mr. Culver was married in 1891 to Miss Mary J. Hair, a daughter of Dr. J. Hair, a retired physician now residing in Kansas City, Missouri.
The Hairs are Ohio people, but after various removals located in Republic county, Kansas, where Dr. Hair lived several years.
Mrs. Culver was born in Iowa. She is a graduate of the State University and has been a successful teacher. She was principal of the Republic city schools and was a resident of that town at the time of her marriage with Mr. Culver.
Mr. and Mrs. Culver are the parents of three bright, intelligent children, viz: Marguerite, Harold H. and George.
I could use some assistance in connecting the dots.
Regards,
Timothy George Culver
