Biography
"John Culpeper, merchant, baptized at Harrietsham, Kent, 26 Oct. 1606. He was admitted to the Middle Temple in 1621. He married Mary (Unknown). Part owner with his brother Thomas of the ship Thomas and John, in the Virginia trade."[1] No issue - descendants are of his brother Thomas Culpepper.
"He is believed to be identical with the John Culpeper who was Sheriff and Clerk of Northumberland County, Virginia, 1671-1674."[1]
His wife Mary was a widow in 1675 when she petitioned the Council for an allowance from his estate.[1]

Henry Culpepper of Lower Norfolk County, Virginia. Source on his profile (online family tree says:
"Henry may have been the son of John Culpeper the Merchant, who was the son of John Culpeper of Astwood in Feckenham and Ursula Woodcock, but this is far from being proven. While there is some evidence to suggest that the name of Henry's father was John, it has not been possible to prove that this John was the one just mentioned. But he seems to be a good candidate, since he was the right age to have been Henry's father, was known to have been abroad from England, and belonged to a family with other connections in Virginia."

Magna Carta trail
Note: This profile for has been altered since the trail anchored on this profile was approved by the Magna Carta project. In Richardson, this John, son of John & Ursula, married Mary ______ but is not shown as having any children. Discussions for resolution are continuing, but in the meantime, the trail appears to have been broken and, therefore, the Magna Carta badge was changed to a Trail Pending project box and he was removed from the Gateway Anestors category. ~ Noland-165 13:11, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
John Culpepper is a descendant of Magna Carta surety baron William Malet.[1] The trail was developed, reviewed, and approved by the Magna Carta project (reviewer: April Dauenhauer; 2015).
Needs Re-review: Much has changed since then, most notably the addition of a son who is documented in Richardson as his brother Thomas's son.
