Henry Madison Peeples was born on April 3, 1797, in the Barnwell District of South Carolina, to Martha Ann Odom, age 17, and Darling Peeples, age 22.
He married Sarah "Sally" Robinson Odom on May 23, 1816, when he was 19 years old. They were first cousins, once removed. They had two children, but his second child, a daughter, was born about six months after his death.
Like his father before him, he was the owner of enslaved peoples.
He died as a young father on January 24, 1824, in his hometown, and was buried there in the Peeples Cemetery.
