Material prepared by J. Knox Wright of Columbia, MO, given to
Judith Railton by Mrs. Orville Powers.  (received by Nancy Hensley, January 17,

and Nicholas WRIGHT.  The records show that Peter and his brothers went to
Sandwich in the Plymouth Colony. (General Dictionary of First Settlers of New
England, Savage, Vol IV, pg 638 and the Plymouth Records, Vol III, B. 11.)
Peter and his brothers lived at Sandwich 1640-1653, when he and his family
moved to what is now Oyster Bay, Long Island, New York.  He bought the land
from the Indians and is known as the founder of the town Oyster Bay.
Peter was drowned while on a trip to Virginia, by vessel.
