Biography

Research Notes

Pearl is DNA proved to be the daughter of Zua, however, Sherman Miller is not her biological father. This confirms family stories that her mother was possibly pregnant before she married Sherman. Occasionally dates for Pearl's birth and the marriage date fluctuated on records, possibly to hide this fact.

One of the Devine sons has been chose to be the "father" of Pearl as DNA seems to agree this is a strong link.
