I've been following the duscussion of Peter & Barbara with interest; I'm descended through their daughter Sarah, who married Robert Housley.
First, regarding Peter's parents: I have no proof, but when I first started my genealogy, I was led to believe that Peter's father may have been a Thomas Cooper, a British soldier during the Revolutionary War who defected. I think there was a Thomas Cooper in the Campbell Coounty tax lists around 1820 or so. Don't know if this is the same Thomas.
Second, I don't have anything on Peter's second wife - so if someone could help me with that, I'd appreciate it!
I have Barbara dying between 1841 & 1844 - again, any help on that is appreciated; also the marriage date for Peter & Barbara that I have is "before 1821" - anyone have anything specific?
I have 10 children listed for Peter & Barbara. I won't list them all here but I'd be happy to exchange information with anyone who's interested.
