Zilpha Catherine Peebles
My great grandmother was Zilpha Catherine Peebles, b. abt. 1852 in North Carolina, daughter of Uriah Peebles and Amanda Merideth. Zilpha Catherine married John Walter Portis, my great grandfather. Does anyone know anything more about her background? I have heard that her mother, Amanda Merideth, may have been full-blooded Native American (tribe unknown, possibly Cherokee), and that Zilpha Catherine was disowned by her parents. Any information would be welcomed - I've run into a brick wall on her mother's side, and know very little about her.
