- ElternMarian Montgomery
- Son Mark was born in 1961. She had previously been told that she couldn't have children. She also has a granddaughter who strongly resembles her.
- In 2012 a campaign was started to get Baby Peggy a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame via Indiegogo.
- In 2012 a documentary on her life entitled "Baby Peggy: The Elephant in the Room" was released.
- Has had a long association with the historic Vista Theater in Silver Lake, Los Angeles. As a four-year-old, she participated in the theater's opening ceremony in 1923. It has been refurbished and reopened twice, and Peggy appeared at both reopenings. In 2003, during the Silver Lake Silent Film Festival, Peggy's handprints were made (Chinese Theater-style) in the entrance of the theater.
- She was named the mascot of the 1924 Democratic Convention in New York, and stood on stage waving a flag next to Franklin D. Roosevelt.
- I see it [her days in motion pictures] as all of a piece. It's kind of like putting a quilt together. Quilt-making is very good because everything becomes equally important and equally valid, and everything forms the core of yourself. So both the good and the bad--I always felt that was the hand life dealt, and I've tried to handle it as best I could. I don't have any rancor or any anger or anything toward anyone--or toward Hollywood. Even when it was happening, I realized it was nobody's fault, but you get hurt in spite of that. But I'm very peaceful about it.
- [talking about her life in Cuernavaca, Mexico, where she moved after she left Hollywood] Occasionally even here people find out that I was once a child star, but the name confuses them and they say, "So this is whatever happened to Baby Jane!"
