According to his World War I Draft Registration card dated September 12, 1918, serial number 4048. His full name was John Lloyd Culler. His address was Layton, Fayette County, Pennsylvania.

He was listed as medium height, medium built, dark brown eyes and black hair. (NOTE--his headstone states his birth as October 1, 1874.)
This was recorded in The Keystone Courier, Connellsville, Pennsylvania, July 15, 1887.
Dr. James S. Carson and Loyd Culler, a lad about 12 years old, were out hunting near Layton, on Wednesday. The lad, who was in his bare feet, stepped down over some rocks and was bitten on the ankle by a large copperhead snake. The doctor immediately took his knife and made an incision and then sucked the blood and poison from the wound and touched it off searing the flesh. The boy was hurriedly taken to a drug store and the wound bathed in ammonia, all the whiskey he could drink being given to him. The leg was then bandaged above the wound, and, although it pained the lad and the foot was swollen, he is now doing well.
