- He was a very religious man based on some of his writings that have suvived in a small 7 page scrap of notebook. He felt that his daughter had married beneath her probably because of the actions of her father in law. In his will he tried to have the Drollingers excluded from any inheritance. According to the recollections of my father (Louis P.Drollinger), Peter worked as a laborer during the day and was a watchman at night. He accumulated some money by buying houses at Sheriff's Sale and renting them out. Peter had two or three sisters,one of whom married an Ullmann and had a son Fred (Alfred).

1837 -- Rev. Friederick HEYER started 3 Lutheran Churches. Two were started in what is now downtown Pittsburgh. One of these was English, which I believe is FIRST LUTHERAN CHURCH, Grant St., and another one was German. The 3rd one was started in what was known as "Old Allegheny", now the North Side. This one had a very long name and was called "1st German Evangelical Lutheran St. Johns Congregation of North Side". This was the start of Lutheran activity on the North Side of Pittsburgh. This was the church attended by Peter.
