Life
Peter von Bredahl was a son of the Danish-Norwegian naval officer of the same name in Russian service Peter Bredahl and his wife Blanceflor Sophie, nee. Coucheron, a daughter of the Dutch Quartermaster General Wyllem de Coucheron († 1689) , who was in Danish-Norwegian service .

Karl Friedrich took him to Holstein in 1727 as a chamber precutter ( écuyer tranchant ). In 1738 he was appointed ducal chief hunter. In 1739, von Bredahl was the official messenger who announced the Duke's death to the court in St. Petersburg. He remained in the service of his son, Duke Karl Peter Ulrich, from 1742 Grand Duke Peter and was “in great esteem for a long time”. In 1745 the Grand Duke sent him to Stockholm to notify the Swedish court of his marriage to Sophie Auguste Friederike von Anhalt-Zerbst , who later became Tsarina Catherine II. At the instigation of Tsarina Elisabeth , he and other Holsteiners had to leave the farm in 1746 . He was deported to the distant but lucrative post of bailiff over the ducal office of Trittau in Holstein.
