He took the leading role in the East Reserve Kleine Gemeinde in the years prior to the election of Elder Abram L. Dueck in 1895, during a time in which the Manitoba elder lived in Rosenort. After this Peter spent more time on his farm and by 1905 he was farming a section of land. Most of his descendants live in Blumenort and Mexico. -from Blumenort: A Mennonite Community in Transition, 2nd Edition, by Royden Loewen, pp. 306-307.
