Following his death, the following obituary notice appeared in the Lutheran Observer, which was the official paper of the denomination. It was written by Adam's pastor, it read, "Died, on the sixth day of November, AD 1865, in the 68th year of his life, Adam Culp, Senior of Knox Township, Jefferson County, Ohio." [28]

His obituary continued as follows:

Baltzer Culp, the father of the deceased, emigrated from Hanover, in the Province of Hanover, near the close the last century, and settled in Virginia. In A.D. 1799, the family moved into the Ohio Territory where the deceased spent the last 60 years of his life. His father Baltzer, being a pious member and a deacon of the church, and consecrated to God, was a devoted officer and elder in the church for more than forty years.[29]
