Notes from Find a Grave Memorial: Even though his grave contains a new stone, this memorial will be listed under the spelling of his name from the original tombstone of Peter Virtzs. Also his date of birth is calculated based on the inscription on his original tombstone.

His original stone is located in row KK, Stone 3, reads Virtzs, Peter. d. 22 May 1798, at 60y 1m 9d.

According to the DAR Patriot Index - Volume 3, page 3155, Peter served as a Patriot Servant in the American Revolutionary War.
