George Culler, farmer; P. O. Lucas; was born in Frederick County, Maryland, January 31, 1810; his father's name was Jacob Culler; his mother's maiden name was Barbary Long; they were both of German descent; they came to Richland Co. in the fall of 1825, and purchased the farm now owned by the heirs of Andrew Culler, deceased; they continued to reside on this farm, cultivating and improving it, as long they lived; they were the parents of eleven children, eight sons and three daughters, Michael L., Margaret, Sarah, Elenora, John, George, Jacob S., Isaac, Christopher, Andrew and Philip H., of whom George, Isaac, Philip H., Margaret and Sarah are living. They were very active and consistent members of the Evangelical Lutheran Church for more than fifty years, and were ever liberal in their contributions for the building of churches, the support of the Gospel and other religious and benevolent enterprises; they trained their large family of children to habits of industry, economy and strict integrity, all of whom subsequently became useful members of society and of the church. Mr. Culler died August 2, 1843, aged 70 years 2 months and 8 days; Mrs. Culler died September 9, 1856, aged 79 years 3 months and 14 days; they were both buried at Mount Zion.
George Culler remained with his father, assisting him on the farm and occasionally working out at the carpenter trade, till May, 1886, when he was married to Miss Elizabeth Ernsbarger; in about a year after his marriage, he became the owner of the farm on which he now resides, which was, at that time, in a wild and uncultivated state; but, by the persevering industry of Mr. Culler, this dense forest was soon transformed into fruitful fields. By his first marriage, Mr. Culler had three children, all sons, Melancthon, Enoch H. and John J.; Enoch died when about 3 years old; John J. died while in the service of his country, at St. Louis, Missouri, and was buried in Christ Cemetery, in that place. His first wife was an active and consistent member of the Lutheran Church for about ten years; she died November 18, 1843, aged 25 years, 10 months and 8 days, and was buried at Mount Zion. Mr. Culler married for his second wife Miss Elizabeth M. Wiles, eldest daughter of John and Catherine Wiles; she was born November 6, 1827, in Frederick County, Maryland.
