***This is not the complete database. This format shows all of the descendants of John Peterson, b. 1636. It does not show the ancestors of those married to a descendant. For example, the web site indicates, in the narrative, the names of Lydia (wife of Jonathan Peterson, Sr.) Wadworth's parents but it does not list Lydia's other ancestors and siblings. A visitor can click on the above GEDCOM generator and that will provide the complete database with dates and places but the GEDCOM does not contain notes and sources. Please do not hesitate to contact me (eMail address is above) if you are looking for more data than what appears in this web site.
