Company Names, addresses, dates^1,3:
  C. Peters, Bottler, [address unknown] (c1859-c1861)
  C. Peters, Saloon owner, 233 7th W (1865)

Notes:
Charles Peters was born about 1820 in Germany². The 1860 Census listed his occupation as "Bottling Ale".

The earliest reference I have to Peters was an announcement made November 4th, 1859 in the Evening Star newspaper, where Chas Peters, Arny & Shinn , and W.N.H. Maack announced that they had all agreed not to give more than 16 bottles of Mineral Water, Ale, Porter or Cider for half a dollar³. I guess "price fixing" was an acceptable practice back then.

The only place I've seen Peters in the City directories is as a saloon owner at 233 7th Street West in the 1865 directory.
Other saloon owners at that same address include:
  Charles M. Floyd (1864)
  Lewis Walter (1866)
