Sketch
Peter Allen was a Donegal Trader who settled on Chickasalunga Creek about 1718. In 1720 he lived near the site of Marietta, and traded with the Indians. Some ten years later, he had a trading post near the mouth of Fishing Creek, a few miles south of the hill which has since then been known as Peter's Mountain. He was living there until after 1735.
