General Notes: Husband - Capt. John Craighead Culbertson

Cincinnati, OH - a banker

He was an officer in the United States Army.

He was born and raised in the "Row". After the breaking out of the War of 1812, he entered the army as Ensign in the 22d U. S. Inf., 17th of March, 1812. Commissioned 2nd Lieut., Mar. 13, 1813; 1st. Lieut., Oct. 1, 1813. Transferred to 8th U. S. Inf., May 17, 1815. Captain, June 1, 1819." (U. S. Army Register). Disbanded June 1, 1821.
"After leaving the Army he went to the Frontier, engaging for a time in the Santa Fe trade. His career in trading in the West, laid a broad foundation for his fortune, that became assured after his settlement in Cincinnati in the year 1828. A few years after his establishment in Cincinnati he organized the Franklin bank and gave a large share of his attention to its management. When the bank surrendered its charter, Capt. Culbertson associated with M. Grosbeck and Mr. Kilgour, as successors of the Franklin bank, in private banking, and continued this association for many years. The rigid will, sturdy resolution and courage that were the prominent characteristics of Capt. Culbertson, were doubtless the basis of his successful business career. Socially, he was a genial and generous liver, his home being perhaps more thoroughly patrician in style than any in the city." (From a Cincinnati Paper.) His fortune at his death was estimated at $500,000. His sons were wealthy and influential men and his daughters married prominent men, one of these being Rev. John Annan, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, Cincinnati.
