: : : Does anyone konw what country the surname: peters originated in? If anyone knows, feel free to e-mail me.
I agree, it came from Europe. Actually, many came from Alsace-Lorraine, France. Then in the 1790's they came over to Canada. Once over in the US some of the family members dropped the s on the end and it became Peter. That is my last name, but my 4x great grandfather had an s on his name making it Peters.
