Last Saturday I was called to Spring Hill to conduct the funeral service of Mrs. Charlotte McCullough [McCoulugh]. Her maiden name was Bedwell. In 20 more days she would have reached her 91st birthday. She was married at the age of 24, which was 67 years ago. Her husband has been dead 23 years. She was the mother of eight children, three sons and five daughters. All of these are dead except one son. At the age of thirty she became a Christian and was buried with Christ in Baptism. Hers was a spiritual life and her death the triumph of Christian faith – W.H. Coleman

Per newspaper stories, courthouse records, census data, there are many variances in the spelling of her name.

The 1900 census lists her as an inmate at the Warren County Poor Farm. Her name is spelled Sharolott McCullough, aged 86, born in TN.
