Ted Bundy: The Worst Serial Killer In History? ... Ted’s father Lloyd Marshall, was a United States Air Force Veteran who never married his mother. Ted’s mother, Eleanor Louise Cowell, was just twenty-two years old when she gave birth to Ted. Due to the fact that Eleanor Cowell was so young when she had Ted, and that she was unmarried, Ted was given to his grandparents to raise. So shortly after he was born, Ted moved to his grandparents house and was led to believe that his mother was actually his older sister. When Ted reached the age of four, Ted and his natural mother moved from Pennsylvania to Tacoma, Washington to live with some relatives.
His mother eventually married a gentleman by the name of John Culpepper Bundy and thus Theodore Robert Cowell became the man we know as Ted Bundy. Ted never took to his step-father because he tried to step into the role of being Ted’s father. Ted didn’t like this because as far as he was concerned the only man he would ever love as a father was his grandfather who lived in Pennsylvania. Ted was forced to move to a new place in which he had no father figure or leadership in his life. When Ted reached adolescence he was terribly shy and was teased and bullied repeatedly throughout school. Even though he was humiliated daily and the butt of every joke, Ted managed to keep a high grade point average throughout high school and into college. It was during high school that Ted began to show an increased interest in politics. In 1965, Ted graduated from high school and received a scholarship to the University of Puget Sound and another to the University of Washington in 1966. Ted went to the University of Puget Sound where he excelled in all of his studies. ... Ted kept his high grade point average until 1967 when he began a relationship that would have a profound effect on the rest of his life.
Stephanie Brooks, the woman that Ted met, was everything that he had ever dreamed of. Ted always felt a little inferior to Stephanie and event went so far as to make comments such as “I can’t believe that a girl from her class would share their life with a person like me.” However, Stephanie was not as interested or as infatuated with Ted as he was with her. Ted would speak of his plans for their future when Stephanie did not have any interest in making a future with him.
