      Father Joseph Sackett MD (1733/34-1799)
      Mother Hannah Alsop (1735-1817)

      Peter Sackett, son of Joseph Sackett MD and Hannah Alsop, was born in Newtown, Long Island, New York State, on 4 November 1757. He married there in about August 1779, Esther Palmer, daughter of Charles Palmer. Esther was born in about 1761.
      Sergeant Major Peter Sackett served in the American Revolutionary War. In 1776 he was appointed Adjutant of the 4th Regiment of the Continental Line. He resigned his commission in September 1778 apparently in consequence of his involvement as a witness in two courts martial. Although he was not the accused in either case, the verdict of the court suggested that his evidence had not found favor.
      Peter was named in the will, made on 2 August 1780 and proved in New York on 20 September 1784, of his unmarried great aunt Johanna Clowes. He was to receive, jointly with his brother James and sister Millicent, one-seventh of the residue of her estate.
      In 1790 Peter was living in Norwalk, Fairfield County, Connecticut. In his household were two men, one boy, and three females.
      Peter was named in his father's will made in New York City on 12 March 1799. He and each of his siblings were to receive a book chosen by their mother.
