He was the first son William Peyto of Chesterton (Sheriff of Warwickshire in 1695) and his wife Elizabeth.[2] The Peytos had been a significant family Warwickshire for hundreds of years, and had acquired the Chesterton estate. A William Peyto was a Member of Parliament (MP) for Warwickshire in 1420, and another had been Sheriff of Warwickshire in 1602.[2]
At the 1715 general election, Peyto was elected as an MP for Warwickshire. A Tory and Jacobite who voted consistently against the government, he was re-elected in 1722 and 1727, and died in office a few months before the 1734 election.[2]
