General Notes: Husband - Charles McClay Culbertson

---

He left home at fourteen years of age and entered a store as a clerk. After some years he went into merchandising and pork packing, in partnership with Daniel A. Jones, at Newport, Indiana. The firm moved to Chicago, Illinois, in 1857, and engaged in packing. This firm was dissolved later, and the firm of Culbertson & Blair formed. Charles remained in active business until 1878, and in 1896 removed to his farm at Newman, Illinois, and engaged in the breeding of Hereford cattle. Here he had a stock farm of 4000 acres and the finest Hereford cattle, it is said, in the United States.
He was a member of the Chicago Board of Trade for some years. It is said he was the largest breeder and importer of Hereford cattle in the United States. His daughters resided in the most aristocratic part of Chicago, and were married to prominent men.
