PEEBLES,PEEPLES,PEOPLES MYSTERY and WYATT SAVAGE PEEBLES

Kinfolks
by Evelyn Flood

The surname is spelled PEEBLES, PEEPLES, PEOPLES and PEOPPEALS.
In Smith Peoples Civil War Arkansas Union Soldiers Index, the last
name was spelled PEOPPEALS
SMITH PEOPLES was born in 1803 in Georgia per Civil War Soldiers
Index (Union).
His son JOHN PEOPLES was born in 1842 in Johnson County, Arkansas.
Son NATHAN PEOPLES was born in 1837 in Tishimingo County, Mississippi.
They enlisted on 1 March 1863 in Newton County, Arkansas in
Co. F, First Arkansas Infantry (Union)
Smith lists his age as 42, but he was much older..like 60.
If you went by that age, he was born in 1821...but he married
ca 1827.

Have been trying to reconcile my Peoples records with those
records of other PEOPLES\PEEBLES\PEEPLES researchers.
Just don't know enough about the earlier families to state
who the son of who was.
My records are mostly from reading census, marriage,land records,
Civil War Pensions, and cemetery records for the areas in which
I am researching.

From other PEEBLES, PEOPLES, PEEPLES researchers, was sent the
following information.
I have listed some questions.

See JOHN THOMAS PEOPLES STORY in my 'Kinfolks Stories' on my website

See SMITH PEOPLES STORY on my 'Kinfolks Stories' website.

Smith's father was supposedly WYATT PEEBLES NO. 2 ,born 1780 in
Brunswick County, Virginia and who died in 1859 in Guilford County,
North Carolina.
I question this.
He was the only son not to leave Guilford County, North Carolina.
The homeplace was 262 acres at Oak Ridge Township.

JEHU PEEBLES, Sr.
He died 1804? Where and when was he born?
Believe his parents were DAVID PEEBLES from St.Monance, Carnbee,
Scotland and his mother to be ANNE MAYBURY.
Who did he marry? What were the names of all of his children?
Known children:
(1)JEHU PEEBLES, JR. who married RUHAMER BANNER.
(2)??, etc.

WYATT PEEBLES NO. 2 was son of JEHU PEEBLES,Jr.
Wife was RUHAMER BANNER.
Ruhamer "Mercy" Banner, born 23 August 1778 in Surry County,
North Carolina, married Wyatt PEOPLES on 27 December 1804 in
Stokes County, North Carolina.
If WYATT PEEBLES NO. 2 was father of SMITH PEOPLES, then
SMITH PEOPLES was born in 1803 in Georgia......year before their
marriage and in state far removed from Stokes County, North
Carolina.
Three sons were born to Wyatt and Ruhamer Banner Peebles:
(1)CHARLES WESLEY PEEPLES, born 24 September 1805 in Stokes
County, North Carolina who married THURZA BRUCE TATUM (10 children).
Does anyone have a list of his children?

(2)BANNER PEEPLES who married TABITHA NEWSOM.

In the grandfather's will, Joseph Banner states,
"Fifthly I give and bequeth to my three grandsons Charles Pebles,
Seth Pebles, and Banner Pebles, sons of my daughter Ruhamer Pebles,
my negro boy Ben, my negro girl Rose and her increase to be equally
divided between them, share and share alike."
Banner must have been firstborn son and named for his mother's
maiden name.

(3)SETH PEOPLES, born 1825(?) in North Carolina.
Seth Peoples married CATHERINE MINGLE, born Virginia, who was the
daughter of William Mingle and Rebecca Kagley.

In the book" Peebles Ante 1600-1963" Smith's first name is listed as
Smith and in the 1830 census for McNairy County, Tennessee.??
Don't believe Seth is Smith Peoples.
The locations are in question.
I have not seen the book "Peebles Ante"

I do not go along with the findings that SMITH PEOPLES is SETH PEOPLES.
But I DO NOT know enough about these families to state for sure.
The SETH PEEBLES, born 1825, was son of Wyatt M Peebles and his wife
No. 3, Nancy BIGGS. Seth Peebles moved to Green County, Arkansas, Union Township, 1855.
Seven children:
1.Nancy Jane Peebles, born 1849 in Tennessee
2.Rebecca E Peebles, born 1852, married JOE DOLLINS
3.George W Peebles,born 1854 in Tennessee died 1886.
(He is nephew on 1880 census with L.J.Peebles. George married
SARAH JOSEPHINE BOLIN).
4.John M Peebles, born 1856,died 1878.
5.Sarah Ann Peebles, born 1858, married J P WALLS
6. James L\R Peebles,born 1858, died 1880.
7. Lilburn J. Peebles, born 1861 (not same L J Peebles as on the
1880 census

Seth W Peebles served in Co. K, Seventh Missouri Confederate Cavalry
and was in Price's Raid in Missouri.
Seth was wounded in the Mine Creek fight in Kansas, receiving a
gunshot wound through the right lung.

WYATT PEEBLES NO. 2 married:
(1)??

(2): ELIZABETH JONES,born ca 1780
daughter of Travis and Patty Jones of Westmoreland County, Virginia.
Children :

(i)CALVIN H PEEBLES , born 1820 in Guilford County, North Carolina,
who married FRAMCES WILSON in McNairy County,Tennessee.
Calvin's Children:
.....i) Ruhnhamer Peebles, born 1845 McNairy County, Tennessee.
.....ii) Eunice Peebles
.....iii) Dora Peebles, born 1854 in Hickman County, Kentucky?
.....iv) Henry Peebles, born 1856 in Hickman County, Kentucky?
Was there a Hickman County, Kentucky?

(ii)FANNIE PEEBLES who married MUNFORD BELL.

In Green County, Arkansas found the following land records listed:
PEEBLES,Wyatt M Section 30, 16North, Range 5East,40 acres 4/10/1882
PEEBLES,Wyatt M Section 31, 16North, Range 5East,0, 7/1/1859
PEEBLES,Wyatt M Section 31, 16North, Range 5East,120acres,7/1/1859
PEOPLES,Wyatt M Section 31, 16North, Range 5East,80 acres,8/1/1861

Hopefully a PEEBLES researcher will help me fill in the missing
information.

Thank you Alyce for the above information

====================================================

From Laray comes the following PEOPLES information. Can you help?
(lratledge@ameritech.net)
To: Rkinfolks@aol.com
Hi,Evelyn my name is LaRay.Great web site.
Seen a lot of our surnames;
Peoples,Robinson,O'neal,Pearce,Smith,Sutton,Holt.
Know for sure of 3-4 Robinsons that married in family,way back.
Looking for info on;
James Louis Peoples b.Dec.3,1852 Hardeman County,Tennessee,
died Nov.14,1930.
Son of Nathan M.Peoples b.1816 NC.,& Mary Williams b.1833 TN.
James Louis Peoples married Feb 25,1880 to
CALLIE DONIA SUMNERS/SUMMERS b.Oct.28,1857 in Hardeman County,TN.,
died May 4,1935.
Not sure how many children they had so far found as follows;

Charles Booker Peoples b.1886 in TN.,probably Hardeman County.
Found in Vernon Cemetery in Hardeman County,Tennessee,
Listed all together;
Callie D.Peoples 1857-1935
J.L.Peoples 1853-1930
Robert Summers Peoples --
June 3,1892-March 15,1946 TN.,Bugler 115 Field Arty.
WW1. h/o Georgia Peoples.
Georgia Rains Peoples 1900-1985
h/o Robert Peoples
So i think Robert Summers Peoples was son of
James L.and Callie D.(Summers)Peoples,and brother to
Charles Booker Peoples.
Think there were more children.
My great grandfather was James Robert Sumners M.D.
Callie Donia (Sumners)Peoples was his sister.
Our family always spelt their name Sumners but it has been
mis-spelled a lot.There was hardly any info on this line i have
entered alot on web sites.
Alot of people never heard these names.
Any connections?
Thank You for your time.LaRay

CAN ANYONE OUT THERE HELP?
========================================================
4August2004
From Gloria Peoples Elam (GloElam@aol.com)

Started out in VA with Captain David Peebles.
From there it went on down through William, there was an Abraham and
then Joel Peeples. My ggreat grandfathere was William H. Peoples and
he came to Texas with his family from MS just prior to the Civil
War.
My great grandfather was Thomas Franklin Peoples.He had a son named
Marion Willis Peoples and Willis had a son named Willard--who only
died last year at age 95. I thought it interesting that the name
Willard came up and think that your family might be closer than we
realize. There is a Willard Peoples still living in Murray Co. OK.
He is in his 70s. Those two Willards are my third cousins.
Our link probably goes back to early Virginia or South Carolina.
However, my ggreat grandfather William H. was living in Scott Co.
Ark, in 1870.
Thanks for an interesting walk through Peoples history.
