2 The Foote Genealogy, p.148, says that he "died April 9, 1811, aged about 55," and that she "died November 4, 1815;" but its author evidently mistook him for the Peter Foote who is mentioned on page 73 of the same book, and has given that Peter's son, Truman Foote, a place among our Peter Foote's children.
