Directory of American Toolmakers (1999) mentions the Peavey Mfg. Co. under its Peavey Tool Co. listing, which was apparently bought out by them in 1928.

Peavey Mfg. Co. is listed among Yeaton's axe makers in his directory Axe Makers of Maine. From 1900 to 1918, the company was in Bangor, then in Brewer from 1918 to 1923, then in Oakland from 1927 to 1965. The Peavey Manufacturing Company is now located in Eddington, Maine.  The company claims to have been in operation since 1857.
