  • Notes 
    • Peter was married twice but the name of his second wife is unknown. One of the marriages took place on 21 Oct 1803.

      Peter sold land on Stewarts Creek in 1775 (150 acres) and a tract on Middle Creek in 1791. He bought 100 acres on Middle Creek in 1792 and another 640 acres on Deep Creek in 1801.

      In 1828, he was granted 50 acres by the State of North Carolina, between Bones and Stewarts Creeks.

      Both Peter and his first wife, Sarah, were Presbyterian. They were on their way to Florida because of Sarah's health when their son, David was born in Georgia. Sarah died soon after. Ref. (1) says David was born in 1812 and Sarah died in 1810, but of course there is a mistake here.
