It is derived from medieval times where the village poor would pick up the pegs left behind by the middle and upper class when they were getting houses or castles build. The pegs were used by the stonemasons to mark out the location for the stones etc. This progressed to other items and cleaning up in general. Thus the name Peggy for someone that cleans up on a construction site.
