Note the resemblance to his brother, Richard Culbert...

And now for the bonus - Joseph Culbert's daughters are included in the photo, too...
Joseph Culbert's wife, Eliza (Dempster) Culbert isn't in the photograph. Joseph and Eliza died within four days of each other in January, 1929 when they were both about 80 years old so we can assume this photo was taken before 1929.
Let's take a closer look at each of Joseph's daughters from that group photo...
Cora Letitia Culbert (above) was born 1881. She married John Casper “Cap” Howard. They lived in Lucan, Ontario and didn’t have children. |
Bertha Jane Culbert. Bertha Culbert (above) was born 1885. She married John George Edmund Meyer and they had a son, Robert Meyer. |
Not included in the group photo is Joseph Culbert's son, John Chester Culbert. He lived in Calgary, Alberta with his wife, Marie McHugh and their two sons, Maurice Culbert and John Chester "Jack" Culbert. If anyone has a photo of John Chester Culbert, please contact me at the above email address. UPDATE: Below is a photo of John Chester Culbert (known as Ches Culbert) sent to me by Susan (Culbert) Block ...

Also not included in the group photo is Joseph Culbert's youngest child, Willie Anson Culbert. Willie was born in 1893 but no other records have been found.
