  • Notes 
    • Peter was obviously a successful businessman.

      There appear to be a number of sale items for which he was an agent. For instance
      "To be LETT, and entered upon immediately, - The WHITE HART PUBLIC HOUSE, at Powlner [Poulner], near Ringwood, Hants. Enquire of Mr Peter Vey, at Ringwood" (Salisbury and Winchester Journal, 19 Jan 1801).
      "HAY. TO be SOLD, at Ringwood, - A RICK of GOOD MEADOW HAY, about Twenty-five TONS. Apply to Peter Vey, there." (Salisbury and Winchester Journal, 8 June 1807).
      "TO be SOLD, - FIFTY TONS of good MEADOW HAY, and delivered any where within twelve miles of Ringwood. Apply to Mr Peter Vey, at Ringwood.
      WANTED to KEEP, till Lady-day next, - One hundred SHEEP, or about Fifty Couples, with plenty of good hay and turnips. Apply as above." (Salisbury and Winchester Journal, 27 Jan 1812).
      "TO be LET, and may be entered upon at Lady-day next, - The CROWN INN at Ringwood, being a well-established House, with good Posting Business, and now in full trade. - For full particulars apply to Mr Peter Vey, at Ringwood." (Salisbury and Winchester Journal, 20 March 1815).

      In the 1830s Pigot's directory he was a wine and spirits at West St. in Ringwood.

      His death announcement in Aug 1832 said
      "Died, on Thursday, the 16th Inst., at Ringwood, in the 77th year of his age, Mr Peter Vey, whose peaceable deportment and exemplary piety through life did honour to the religion that he professed."
