There he was employed as a molder with the Fairbanks-Morse Company until his retirement in 1973. Peter was a member of Saint Jude parish and was also a member of the Knights of Columbus, the Bowling League and the Quarter Century Club at Fairbanks-Morse.

Biography* (twelfth) Pulvermacher, aft 1880-bef 1885:
The existence of this child is inferred from the 1900 census and the mother's obit. According to the 1900 census, twelve children have been born, seven of whom are living. The mother's obit mentions that five children died in infancy, including twins. Children that died in infancy include: Philip, Catherine, Albert, Gertude, and this one, dubbed (twelfth). There are christening records at St. Luke's for Philip, Catherine and Gertrude - and none of those are recorded as multiple births. We have concluded that Albert and (twelfth) were the twins. If this be true, then (twelfth) died before the state census of 1885.
