Simon Peter in Scripture and Memory

So does it stand from this list that Justin and Hegesippus don't explicitly mention Peter? Curious.

Justin mentions Simon Peter in chapters 100 and 106 of the Dialogue.

I do not find Simon Peter mentioned amongst the extant fragments of Hegesippus. But... all we have are fragments....

Do I recall correctly that Lawlor, in the Eusebiana, argues that the bit in Epiphanius about Marcellina derives from Hegesippus? That bit mentions Peter and Paul.
