John Peelle, Jr., was born in Wayne County, Ind., May 15, 1825. His father, 
John Peelle, Sr., was born in Wayne County, N.C., March 27, 1791, and died in 
Wayne County, Ind., April 20, 1879. He was married in 1815, to Penina Pate, 
also a native of Wayne County, N.C., born Aug. 26, 1796, and three days after 
their marriage they bade farewell to home and friends, loaded their effects on 
a two-horse wagon and started for Indiana. In October they landed in Randolph 
County, where they remained two years, and in 1817 came to Wayne County and 
settled two miles north of what was then Newport. Here they settled in the 
woods and cleared up a farm, and here all their children save one were born. 
Their children were twelve in number---William T., Celia, Hiram, James, 
Harriet, John, Pasco, Jane, Rebecca, Sarah C., Calvin and Mary. All lived till 
maturity, and four are still living. In 1854 Mr. and Mrs. Peelle removed to 
Centreville, where she still resides. She lives alone, doing her own house 
work, and is hale and hearty, enjoying a peaceful old age.
