Philip Peckham
Tradition, together with old records, go to show that the Peckhams are of English descent, and emigrated to America on the Mayflower in 1620, and landed on Plymouth Rock, as also the Winslow of the same family connection. Caleb Peckham, the father of the above, was born in Massachusetts in 1746, and died in 1846. Philip, the youngest child of Caleb, was born in Massachusetts in 1798, married Julia Haskins in 1827, emigrated to Huron County, Ohio, in 1829, where he lived until 1855, when he moved to Shelby County, and located in Perry Township, where he died in 1872. John M., his son, now owns and resides on the same place.
