MISC-


 

Still searching for death place of Dudley C. Peavey-have checked parts of Indiana, entire state of Michigan, Sandusky Co., OH (Town of Fremont).  We are still searching for more source documentation on David Peavey b. 1812 Strafford NH as son of Dudley C. Peavey.  We are also still searching for more information on many individual Peavey lines in general who are desc. of Edward Peve b. 1666c.

We have also been trying to find proof of Peverly connection to family of Edward Peve, but haven’t been able to find sufficient proof of this connection either.  We would also like proof of the Samuel Pavey line which has been incorporated into our genealogy as son of Nathaniel Peavey.  There are many who claim this line but I haven’t seen sufficient evidence for this connection and further research is needed.

Anyone with any information pertaining to these families or any Peavey, please contact email addresses above-if one isn’t listed, please contact either Lisa at [email protected] or June at [email protected].

Thank you very much!!
