Peter Sheafor Jr was born in Somerset, NJ in 1781 and married Sarah (Sally) Watts on 2 December 1802 in Mercer county, Kentucky. They had four children. Lorenzo was the second child and the older of the two sons. Lorenzo was Georges' grandfather. Peter served as a Private during the War of 1812. When his military service was over in 1814, he moved his family from Kentucky to Butler county, Ohio to be near his father and siblings. On 2 May 1818, Peter died at age thirty-seven; however, the cause of his death at such an early age is unknown. Since the 1820 census was the first to list occupations, his business or place of employment is not known. He was buried in the Amanda cemetery. ^[1][2]
