A. B. CULLOM, M.D., was born in Davidson County, Tenn., July 16, 1839.  His
parents were Jesse P. and Susan A. (Hooper) Cullom, the former born in same
county and State in 1815, and died March 28, 1851, in Lexington, Mo.  The
mother was born in Dixon County, Tenn., August 29, 1815, and is now living
with her son, Dr. Cullom, who at the age of sixteen commenced the
watch-making trade, which he followed five years.  He enlisted in 1861 in
Capt. Crenshaw's company under Gen. Price, of Missouri.  He served until
the close of the war.  Soon after enlistment he was commissioned First
Lieutenant and participated in the battles of Carthage, Springfield and
Pea Ridge.  He was then detailed on scout duty in which he continued until
the close of the war, when he returned to Nashville and followed his former
trade one year.  He then secured a position as clerk in the dry goods store
of J. M. Hooper, where he continued one year, after which he took up the
study of medicine under the preceptorship of Dr. J. P. Cullom.  He remained
with the Doctor three years.  He then attended the Medical Department of
the Nashville University and graduated in the class of 1870.  He then
moved to Calloway County and commenced the practice of medicine.  In 1879
he moved to Cerulian Springs, where he has since been engaged in the
practice of his profession with good success.  He was married November 9,
1876, to Miss S. A. Brown, of Calloway County, Ky.  Three children have
blessed this union.  The Doctor is a member of the Masonic fraternity,
Blue Lodge, and Chapter at Murray, Ky.; also is a member of the Baptist
Church, and has been Superintendent of the Sunday-school of that place
since his arrival here in 1879.
