The Culpepper Linkage to Charlemagne, Emperor
of the West (born 762)
We believe that most living Caucasian Culpeppers, worldwide,
descend from William Culpeper of Hunton
and Wigsell and
his wife, Cicely Barrett. Cicely Barrett's ancestry has been
traced back to
European royalty and to Charlemagne, Emperor of the
West during the 9th century. William Culpeper's
ancestry has been
traced back to Sir Thomas Colepeper, born 1170.
