in an 1853 letter from Daniel Peterson to Polly Peterson, he states that Paul, Joseph, and John all came from Switzerland.Daniel was the son of Samuel b.1770s.Daniel states his father gave him the information.Samuel was still living at the time the letter was written. I know Paul's son Tobias spoke German.Tobias' brother "John" was born 1759 in Pennslyvania.He states in his pension record he lived in Lincoln County at the time of the revolutionary war. He later moved to a small town near spartanburg SC. called pacolet.
