Peyton was the son of Joseph Bissett and Aley Perry. He married Susan Brown on July 28, 1845 (or 1846) in Nash County. They had 8 or 9 children. Susan died sometime between 1880 and 1891. If she is buried in this cemetery (which is likely), no marker with a legible inscription for her can be found.

According to the NC Marriage Collection, Wilson County, on May 13, 1891, Peyton married (Cora) Annie Silas, who is buried in this cemetery. Peyton was listed as being 60 years old when the marriage took place; Annie was listed as being 29, which does not match the date seen on her headstone.

Peyton was a Civil War veteran.
