Peter moved to Bedford Co., TN, before 1820 and was in Calloway Co., KY, in 1840. He probably died in Johnson Co., IL. Most of Peter's descendants are in southern Illinois. However, one line of descendants eventually moved back to Tennessee, settling variously in Perry, Decatur, and Dyer Cos. The Rushings at Mt. Carmel Cemetery in Decatur Co. are Peter's descendants.
