The Life of Peleg

Start — Genesis 11:16. The year of Peleg's birth is the year his father, Eber (descendant of Shem, son of Shelah), was born (1725) + the age of his father at Peleg's birth (34) = 1759
End — Genesis 11:19. The year of Peleg's death is the year his son, Reu, was born (1789) + the years Peleg lived after his son's birth (209) = 1998

Years are anno hominis — counted from Creation as year 1 — which is the frame the source computes in. The arithmetic behind each boundary is given above rather than assumed.
