The Society has helped restore historic Peyton churches and other buildings in the United States and in England

Three of the more significant projects have been:
  • gifting of a tenor bell to St. Andrew church, Isleham, Cambridgeshire, England to complete the ring of bells begun by a 1484 gift from Thomas Peyton (see PSV A Line)
  • providing most of the funds for the Peyton Organ in Aquia Church, Overwharton Parish, Stafford, Virginia, and funds for the Fellowship building
  • being a major donor of funds for the restoration of St. Catherine's or Peyton Chapel at St. Andrew church, Isleham, Cambridgeshire, England.  Letter from Rev Brian Goodchild dated Christmas, 1965
​The Society has funded a number of genealogical research studies in England by officers of the College of Arms and others

​These studies have been directed, thus far without complete success, toward establishing the relationship between Henry Peyton, ancestor of many American Peytons, and his kinsman, Sir Edward Peyton, who granted Henry the right to use the Peyton arms. Genealogical studies in America have been done mostly by our members, and these entirely on a volunteer basis.
Society Tours​

​The Society has conducted several week-long Peyton history based tours, five in England and two in Virginia, attended by 30-90 persons each, from the United States, England, Australia, Canada, Belgium, and South Africa. The Society endeavors to keep in contact with members of the family throughout the world, and keep members informed of their family history on a continuing basis.
