Silas Peters and Anna Powell were married 21 Feb 1839 in Odessa, Lafayette County, Missouri. There is some debate about whether Silas was the son of James Peters and Nancy Peters (cousins who married), or the son of Tobias Peters Sr. and Elizabeth Rachel Scarborough. I tend towards the latter view. I believe it is proven by the sale of the childrens' shares of Tobias Peters' land. Additionally, James and Nancy Peters were from Virginia, and there is no evidence that they were ever in Tennessee. John Wesley Peters was born 24 Oct 1842. Elizabeth Rachel Peters was born 30 Apr 1844. Mary Ann Peters was born 4 Mar 1846. Silas Powell Peters was born 2 Mar 1848. James Henry Peters was born 27 Jan 1860. |
