Summary[edit]

Description
English: The daughter of Virginia State Senator James Murray Whittle and his second wife (and cousin) Cornelia Skipwith of Mecklenburg County, Virginia, Motoaka Whittle was descended from Pocahontas through both her father and her mother. In the fall of 1865 Motoaka Whittle married William E. Sims, and lived at the Whittle plantation Eldon in Pittsylvania County, Virginia. In 1875 her father had built for her and her husband a new home, now known as the Sims-Mitchell House, still standing in Chatham, Virginia. She died at her home in Chatham in 1901.
