The 1880 Peoria, Peoria Co, Illinois census shows the following family:

Peters, John T., 41, born in Hannover
Peters, Johanna, 35, born in Hannover
Peters, Christian, 5, born in Hannover
Peters, Angelina, 3, born in Hannover
Peters, Rieka, 1, born in Hannover


The 1900 Greene Twp, Woodford Co, Illinois census shows the following family:

Peters, John, born August 1838 in Germany
Peters, Johanna, born February 1846 in Germany
Peters, Reka B., born May 1880 in Germany

The Passenger and Immigration Lists: Germans to America, 1875-1888 CD shows the following:

Passenger's Name: Johann Peters
Age: 42
Gender: Male
Occupation: Laborer
Last Residence: Germany
Date of Arrival: May 15, 1880
Final Destination: USA
Ship's Name: Mosel
Manifest ID Number: 35667
Port of Embarkation: Bremen & Southampton

Others with that surname on that vessel were:

Johanna, 34
Diedrich, 4
Lina, 3
Rike, 10 months

Hopefully some of this information will help you. Based on my own research, I would say it's very possible the families were originally from Ostfriesland and would look there for more clues about them.
