Peter Summy settled in the eastern part of Rowan County, in present day Davidson County, North Carolina.[1]
30 Sep 1783 - Peter is named as an heir of the estate of Conrad Briles in Randolph County, North Carolina. We may therefore assume he married a daughter of Conrad.
23 Jul 1804 - Peter Summy makes his will in Rowan County. His children (not named) are to have 200 acres on Lick Creek. wit: Nicolas (x) Rolenback, Christian Stokinger. Executors: son Peter, George, Frederick Summy. Son Jacob is named. The will mentions his wife but doesn't name her, however an Elizabeth Summy makes her mark below the testator's signature. This is very likely his wife. Will book D, page 36.[2]
Today, in Randolph County there is a Summey Town Road, presumably where this family lived west of the Uwharrie River.
