Peder was born in 1758 at Aksdal farm on Etnefjørd in Etne clerical district, Hordaland, Norway, the son of Bjørn Pedersen (Ve) Aksdal and Mette Olsdatter Fatland. He moved with his family across the Etenfjord to settle and farm at the Ve farm, his father's birthplace. He married the widow Ingeborg Torkilsdatter Vinje in 1783 in Etne. She joined Peder at Ve where they had two children before Ingeborg died in 1785. Peder remarried to Anna Jensdatter Aksdal in 1787 in Etne. She also joined him at Ve, bearing him (at least) six children, two of whom died in infancy. Peder passed away at Ve in 1831 at age 73.
