Will	30 Aug 1697
On 30 August 1697 Peter deeded all his "estate undisposed of" to his sons Peter, husbandman, and son John, Cordwainer (shoemaker), in consideration of life support. This deed is signed by a simple "P" and it is thought that this suggests frail health, for the previous "P.M." is assumed to have been his and indicates that Peter was literate and had had some education in England. He died between 30 August 1697 when this last deed was signed and 24 November 1701 when his son John conveyed to John Smith "land ... formerly belonging to peter malary my deceased father."
