The Peachey family had considerable interest at Midhurst in the first half of the eighteenth century. Sir John Peachey was a follower of the Prince of Wales who went over to the Pelhams in 1751, and subsequently became an adherent of Newcastle. In 1760 he sold his property at Midhurst, and at the general election of 1761 withdrew from politics.
He died 30 June 1765.
