    Notes 
    • NEHG Register, Oct 2010, V0l. 164 -apparently never married. He owned land in Austinburg as early as 1818 and was almost certainly the Peter Waterbury who appeared briefly in Austinburg at the time of the 1820 census, living alone, age 26-45. He was back in Connecticut by 1823 and remained there for the rest of his life. Peter Waterbury's will, dated 7 Aug. 1850, left to "my sister Mary Waterbury all my real and personal estate for her sole use and benefit." The will did not designate an executor, but David Waterbury was named administrator on 30 Sept. 1850. Peter's inventory included an undivided half interest in a house, a barn, twenty-one acres of land (the homestead), and crops in the field, plus a small number of personal possessions and tools. real estate was ordered sold at auction to cover costs, and the winning bidder was Mary Waterbury, who received full title to Peter's half interest in their jointly-held real estate for a total of $20 on 30 June 1851.
