Peter was born in Virginia to Jacob and Hanna Little. The family soon moved to North Carolina. In 1793, he married Nancy Rector in Surrey County, North Carolina and they started what would become a large family together. Around 1812, they moved to Wayne County, Indiana. Wayne County, named for General Anthony Wayne, had just been formed in 1811. The first white settlers in this area were Quakers from North Carolina in 1806.
