Peter was a Lieutenant in the Infantry during the Revolutionary War. He and his wife Margaret Martin Dupuy moved from Nottoway County, Virginia to Powhatan County, Virginia in 1797. They moved again, in 1818, to Richmond, Virginia. Their residence in Richmond was on Church Hill and was razed in 1853, the year after the couple's death in 1852.
