My late mom was born Georgia Helen Pennington in Linton Greene Co.,IN.The Pennington's lived in Knox Co.,IN. though.Her father was William Shively Pennington(Gertrude Pearl Byrne),her grandfather was William Henry Pennington(Anna Catherine Shively),her great-grandfather was William Pennington(Rebecca Robinson),her 2xgreat-grandfather was Isaac Pennington(Elizabeth Price),her 3xgreat-grandfather was Joshua Pennington,her 4xgreat-grandfather was Benijah Pennington,her 5xgreat-grandfather was Ephriam Pennington. There are some blanks. Joshua Pennington was born in Rowan Co.,NC. circa 1756. His wife was Elizabeth ? Benijah Pennington was born in Rowan Co.,NC. circa 1725. His wife was an Elizabeth? too.I don't have any idea who was Ephriam Pennington's wife or where he was born. I suspect they came out of NJ. though.
My line of Penningtons are from Hendricks County, Indiana,
William N. Pennington (1841-1921). His son was Ernest Leroy Pennington (1877-1952) my grandfather. Ernest died in Wichita, Kansas and I know little about him after 1925 when my grand parents divorced. Would like to know about him.
My Pennington line goes back to a Joseph Pennington m. 1750 in Little Egg Harbor, Ocean Co., NJ to Pheobe Slocum. This is all I have on Joseph.
His son Israel b. 1752 NJ d. 1810 Monroe Co., NY. m. Abigail Conklin she b. 6 Mar 1755 d. 6 Oct 1836 MI
Their son John Pennington b. 25 Aug 1778 Stafford, Monmouth Co., NJ d. 29 Dec 1860 Macon, Lenawee Co., MI m. Hannah Willetts 1806 Perintown, Monroe Co., NY John converted to the Quaker faith in 1807
Their daughter Abigail b. 25 Apr 1816 Monroe Co., NY d. 27 Nov 1865 Lenawee Co., MI m. 22 Apr 1841 Lenawee Co., MI to Jacob Snyder
I am looking for information on Isaac Pennington born 16 May 1715. He was the son of Abraham Pennington. Isaac married
Mary Williams 8 Dec1733 in Cecil Co., Maryland. My Williams line (Providence, wife Sarah, Joseph Williams, wife Lydia and Ann Paulson/Poulson) sold land in Cecil Co., 1736 while they were living in Orange Co, Virginia. The Penningtons were also living in Orange Co. at the time.
The land records for Abraham indicate the same land -- Pembrook and Emory's Choice. I am trying to connect this information and find more information on Mary Williams, wife of Isaac Pennington. Tina
Nothing new on my line but I have not been doing very much research as I am in the tax business and was working about 60 hours a week before April 15. Also I have been stuck on this line for a long time.
I descend from Selina Pennington (b. 1817 NC) who married Henry Shankle. David Pennington was born 14 November 1778 in Anson County, North Carolina. David was the son of David Pennington and Lydia Gilliam [source for Lydia's surname: Iris Hurst (1985) Pennington Pedigrees 17(2), p.57]. David Pennington married Nancy Harris on 22 December 1803. David died 22 January 1864 and is buried in the Pennington Cemetery, Stanly County, North Carolina.
Nancy Harris was born 28 September 1785. She was the daughter of Brantley Harris and Elizabeth Edwards. (Note that Elizabeth Edwards Harris Harris was married first to Brantly Harris and second to Arthur Harris. Nancy is the daughter of Brantley. my info on this family is at www.bigbertis.com/fam33.htm
I am descended from Joseph Pinnington ( Pennington) and his wife Harriet Chiswell ( Chesell) Joseph was born in Atherton in England in 1787. Three of his sons Christopher, Benjamin and Reuben were sent here to Australia as convicts and their name changed to Peninton. Reuben was my gr-gr grandfather
looking for descendants of Graves PENNINGTON and either of his wives' Franky GRAVES and Martha BONDURANT. He was born in 1783. He Died in Nashville, Tn. Had 3 sons by his first marraige, John Winfield P., James T. P., and William P. He had a number of children by Martha, whom he married in 1823 i think. John and James Married cousins, John marrying Elizabeth DODSON and James marrying Margeret Ann SAMPLE (her mom was a dodson). Graves and James died within a year of each other, around 1854.
Graves PENNINGTON died around 1853 in Nashville Tn. He owned the land that OLE OPRYLAND stood on. There is a bend in the Cumberland river that was called PENNINGTON bend. His mother was probably a GRAVES also... so he married a distant cousin.
I have also been in touch with probable cousins. They changed their name to PENDLETON, among others.
My name is Mike Pennington and i am trying to locate more info on my great grandfather whose name is Alonzo Charles (A.C.) Pennington born 1854 in Mississippi. Alonzo was a Baptist Minister in Van Zandt, Texas and moved into the Indian Territory (Oklahoma) where he died in 1936 and buried in Crow Cemetery Ringling, Ok. He was married to Susan F. Cross-Fowler-Pennington born 1861 in LA and died in 1930 and buried in Muskokee, Oklahoma. Alonzo's parents listed were "Willie" and "Jackson" born in Alabama. I need to be able to make that connection. In 1850 I found an F. Pennington with Nancy Jackson with a son "Thomas". Alonzo had brothers Thomas Sidney Pennington 1849/1850 and Benjamin Franklin Pennington 1856 both in Mississippi. "Willie" and brother(s) fought in the Civil War? Any Help?
I am interested in the Pennington family from Mississippi, Alabama and Oklahoma. I do have some info to share specifically in Oklahoma. I think the name "Willie" may be William Franklin or Francis Pennington and the name of Jackson (maiden name) is Nancy Ann Jackson born about 1820 again both in Alabama.
