Note: This newspaper article if from a scrapbook collection by Belle 
Forrest Sumpter Gullett.

note: notice the wife of Charles C. Sumter--her name was Hester 
(SUMPTER) SUMTER---I believe she was the sister to John Elias Sumpter. 
I have not found any other name change in the family-except this one. 
So, it is two Sumpter/Sumter familys-different lines? According to his 
birth year, he died in 1974, so, it is a big guess-is any of his 
children living? JUDY
