In Peter's will he only mentions one daughter, Hannah and 5 sons, Archibald, Abram, Walter, Aaron and Chauncy. In the 1810 Fed census there are only 4 people in Peter's household. Presumably, Peter and Phebe, then 1 female less than ten (Sarah) and only one male less than 10 (Abraham).
By the 1820 Fed Census there are a male, 26 - 44, Peter; a female, 26 - 44, Phebe, then 4 males under 10, 1 male, 10 - 15 and one female, 10 - 15. This seems to account for the family up to Aaron.
In the 1830 Fed Census, there are 10 people in the household. There is one less male in the household by this time. Since 5 sons are named in the will, I would assume Joseph is the son who is no longer in the household. My guess is that Joseph died between 1820 and 1830. Neither Sarah, nor Mary are named in their father's will. Mary had died in 1845 and I would assume Sarah had also died by 1855.
