About
Peyton Wilkes was born in Grayson County, Virginia in February 1791. It is thought that his parents came from Scotland or England. Peyton was orphaned or left motherless at an early age and was "bound out" to learn the trade of a tanner. He married Anna Dallas in Grayson County on March 18, 1815, her 18th birthday. They were married three days short of 73 years until her death on March 15, 1888. Children, Henry, William G., and Archibald were born in Virginia. The family moved to Kentucky where sons Marmaduke and Columbus, and daughter, Florentine were born. In Indiana, sons, Jabez and George were born. After living in Missouri, the family left to go to Oregon in the spring of 1845. They arrived in Oregon City on Christmas Day, 1845. Includes narratives of life in Oregon.
