Walter was born in New Haven, Connecticut, the son of Jospeh Albert Cudlipp of Brooklyn and Sarah Elizabeth Elson of New Haven.
He attended Hillhouse High School in New Haven and entered Yale University in 1902 where he took the civil engineering course at the Sheffield Scientific School. After graduating in 1905, he suffered from typhoid fever which precluded him from immediatley entering the workforce.
His first job was with the Atlantic Avenue Improvement Company of Brooklyn where he worked for about a year. In 1907, he accepted a position with Ramapo Iron Works at Hillburn, New York. In 1909, he accepted a position the Lorain Steel Company in Johnstown, Pennsylvania but missing New York, he left Lorain Steel later that year and returned to New York.
On December 29, 1909 in Suffern, New York, he married Sadia Bell Boughner (age 21), daughter of Charles L. Boughner and Sadia Lewis. This was the first marriage for both. In February 1910, he returned to his former job at Ramapo. Sometime around 1920 or so, he and Sadia separated.
On February 16, 1924, he married Eva Tremayne Pryor, who was previously married to Leo Krichbaum. Walter and Eva took up residence in Manhattan on 77th street. In 1927, they were living in Mount Vernon, New York on Gramatan Ave., but by 1935, they returned to the city taking an apartment on 52nd street.
When WWII began, Eva and Walter removed to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania residing at the Grayco apartments at 115 North Street. Walter was working at the Middleton Air Depot (now Harrisburg International Airport) but also kept an apartment in Washington, D.C. where he worked with the Bureau of Engineering. Eva remained in Harrisburg at the Grayco.
Little is know of their postwar lives. At some point, they may have returned to New York, but the record is unclear. The Washington D.C. city directory has a listing for Walter in an apartment on 15th Ave. NW, but there is no mention of Eva. Directories of the era typically listed a spouse's name.
Eva predeceased Walter in 1952 and Walter died in Washington, D.C. in 1956. Both are entombed in the Main Mausoleum at the Ferncliff Cemetery in Hartsdale, New York.
