DIED:

Darnestown, Maryland, US

Jun 22, 1861

George Peter was born on Sep 28, 1779 in Georgetown, Maryland, US (now in Washington, D.C.). The surviving biographical summary provides only limited evidence about childhood, schooling, and the daily circumstances of the household, so those details are not reconstructed here without documentation. What can be stated securely is that this person belonged to the interconnected family world from which HistoryGPS traces participants, relatives, and later descendants of the Revolutionary generation.

The available biographical record identifies George Peter with work or public activity as a statesman. Those roles provide the clearest documented basis for including this person in the database and should be read in the political, military, professional, or household context of the period. George Peter died on Jun 22, 1861 in Darnestown, Maryland, US. Additional claims about employment, public service, or accomplishments have been omitted where the consulted source did not support them.
