Upon Ameline Caroline Metzer Forler's death on March 27, 1896, Peter needed a mother for his large family. Although Catholic, he married a divorced woman named Minnie McCool Marts (McCool is her maiden name) in Warrick County, Indiana, on September 15, 1897. This union produced the following children:
