Dear Becky, and Cousins on the List, As far as I know, no one here is currently researching those Centre County Penningtons, but that may change soon. Our cousin Georgia and our Cousin John O. Pennington are both moving in directions with their families that may show Robert Pennington (who went to Centre County) connection. The best thing to do would be to make contact with Judith Pennington whose father Robert worked hard to determine the ancestry of Robert of Centre County, and was at one time President of the PRA, and a wonderful, kind, giving, considerate person. Robert (Bob) Pennington died three years ago, and the PRA couldn't even be bothered to write an acknowledgement of him. I would guess, from the locale of yours, that you might want to direct your research toward his. There was a great deal of work done on that family, a marker was placed in Potter township, etc. The research was done by a lady named Dora Hatley, who lived here in Oregon, along with Bob Pennington. There was quite a bit published in Pennington Pedigrees, but I don't have access yet to most of my copies (they're still packed up -- somewhere) due to moving for the last three months. I'll work on trying to find a way for you to contact Judith Pennington. She doesn't live that far from you, near Annapolis, MD, the last I heard about her.
