George William Peterkin (March 21, 1841 - September 28, 1916) was the first Bishop of West Virginia in the Episcopal Church in the United States. ==Early life== Born in Clear Spring, Washington County, Maryland as first child of Rev. Joshua Peterkin of Baltimore, Maryland (1814–1892) and his wife Elizabeth Howard Hanson, George Peterkin had two younger sisters, Mary Beall Peterkin (1842–1857) and Rebekah Dulaney Peterkin. He attended the University of Virginia until the American Civil War interrupted his studies to become a priest like his father. Peterkin joined the 21st Virginia Infantry in Richmond, and after the battle of Seven Pines in 1862 joined the staff of artillery General William N. Pendleton, who had been a priest in Maryland before the war and knew his father.〔Susan Pendleton Lee, Memoirs of William Nelson Pendleton, D.D. (J.B. Lippincott, 1893) p. 180 available at google books〕 As General Pendleton's aide, Lieutenant Peterkin witnessed the surrender ceremony at Appomattox.〔Lee at p. 405.〕
