From "A Bit of Foliage from the Family Tree" by Cornelius F. Posson:
As a young man he came to Orleans County in the year 1818 and took up some land south of Fletcher Chapel, on the knoll on the back end of Enos Dye farm. In 1822 he married Mary Bartholomew, said to be one of the most beautiful of women. To this marriage, nine children were born--three of them on the Shelby farm and the other six at Middleburg, Schoharie County, for Peter's Shelby land did not prove to be very good and he returned to Schoharie County somewhere about 1830. He taught day-school and singing-school while in Shelby.
