Peter Mills (1598–1670)
Peter Mills was baptised on 12 February 1597/8 in East Dean, Sussex, where his father was a tailor. In 1613 he was apprenticed to John Williams, a tyler and bricklayer in London. In 1643 he became Bricklayer to the City of London and was Master of the Tylers' and Bricklayers' Company in 1649-50 and 1659-60. In about 1640 he probably designed a row of houses on the south side of Great Queen Street, London, decorated with Corinthian pilasters. He may have been the designer of certain works at Forde Abbey, Dorset for Sir Edmund Prideaux in about 1650. Prideaux became Attorney General for Oliver Cromwell and was MP for Lyme Regis and " Master of the Posts, Messengers, and Couriers".

In 1653 he designed Thorpe Hall near Peterborough for Oliver St John, Oliver Cromwell's Lord Chief Justice. The final design involved the input of John Stone, a French-trained son of Nicholas Stone.

Peter Mills (pretender)
Peter Francis Mills (1927 – 2 January 1988), self-styled as Petros I Palaeologus, was an English eccentric and pretender from the Isle of Wight. Mills believed that his mother's last name, Colenutt, was derived from Koloneia, an ancient province of the Byzantine Empire, and consequently believed himself to be descended from the Palaiologos dynasty, the empire's final ruling family. Though his genealogy was never completely finished, Mills took the titles " Despot and Autokrator of the Romans" and " Duke of Morea", though he never achieved any widespread recognition and never seriously attempted to enforce his claims. Mills was often seen around his hometown of Newport dressed either in a military uniform or long, flowing robes. Upon his death in 1988, Mills' second wife Patricia took up his claim as "Empress of the Romans", his children by his first wife having denounced his pretensions as a "utter sham".
