Peter Ketterman/Ketteman

Peter Ketteman was recorded in Cumberland Township, Adams County, Pennsylvania, in 1860 as age 30, born in Pennsylvania, working as a day laborer. The census also noted personal estate valued at $30. The same household included Mary Ketteman, George H. Ketteman, William H. Ketteman, and John G. Ketteman. He may have been Peter Ketterman, who married Mary Johns Ketterman in Gettysburg, though the age in the 1860 census conflicts with the proposed later identity.
