Happy New Year Cousins: I am in group 6,My grandfather,Levi Jackson Pennington went to Oklahoma and married my grandmother Nancy S.J.Elizabeth Powers .He was born March 16. 1873 in Alabama.Married June 27. 1900 in Indian Territory ,died November 16.1922 in Reichert Oklahoma. His sister Martha E. Pennington born September 21. 1865 married George Washington Pennington.Martha died September 02.1934 in Oklahoma Territory. Levi and Martha both are both buried in Summer Feild Cemetery, Reichert Oklahoma. In the 1900 Census it shows Levi and Nancy just after they got married. There is also a Phillip Penington b April 1866, wife Ellen b August 1866 and children Almeda b 1890- May L. b January 1893-Rosa M. b 1895. In the same household there is also a Callie E. South as mother, and Lila as sister, Walter Fannin as Nep, Lynn as nep, Their parents are all from Alabama. I believe that Levi's other brothers and sisters may have gone to Oklahoma to. If there is anyone that has and Pennington ancesters from Gilmore ,Reichert,Spiro, Wister,Earlsboro, Seminole Oklahome, I would sure love to hear from you, I know it is a shot in the dark but you never know what will come out of it. Thank you .Mary

This Article is handed on from the MANLEY List, to which I belong. The U.S. Army Military History Institute has started a searchable database of their Special Collections. Using this database you can see if a photograph exists of your Civil War ancestor. Just enter the surname you're searching and the results page will give any photos of any soldier with that surname, along with (if known) his regiment. Next, you can send an e-mail with the photo ID's that you're interested in. The Army will then send you (for free) a photocopy of the picture, along with instructions on ordering a duplicate photo. An 8x10 photo costs $10.00. No more then ten photos will be produced for any one customer per year. http://carlisle-www.army.mil/usamhi/PhotoDB.html You can supply any of your surnames of ancestors that may have been in the Civil War. The brief information usually mentions the regiment associated with the name, so that information can help you locate that person in Military archives. I checked and there are eight photos recorded for the PENNINGTON surname. Note - some photos are in Civilian garb. Capt. Samuel H. Pennington Jr., Co. B, 35th Regt., New Jersey Vol. Inf. 2nd Lieut Alexander C.M. Pennington, 2nd Regt, US Arty (Artillery) 1st Lt. & Adjt. John Pennington, 12th Regt., Michigan Vol. Inf. Capt.

John Alan Pennington here: I am very pleased to see the recent discussion of DNA analysis, and am especially grateful for Rod Pennington's helpful postings. It's worth noting that this discussion is occurring at the same time as other discussions on where and how various cousins are blocked in their research by failure to find documentation for a crucial relationship in their line. While DNA won't give us all the answers, it does offer the distinct possibility that many of these blocks might be removed and the entire genealogical endeavor brought to a higher level, giving us a greatly improved picture of the entire Pennington family tree. DNA analysis offers proof of descent that may take us beyond the lack of paper documentation for certain links. Take, for example, my own Family Group 4, Ephriam (1720 NC). No document has been found to link this Ephriam with a father, although it seems apparent that he descends in the line of Ephriams beginning with the Ephriam of Family Group 1 (whose parentage is unknown). Now, if several cousins had analysis of their DNA made, including a cousin with documented descent from the Ephriam of Family Group 1 and one from Family Group 4 (as well as documented descendants from other family groups known to have lived in the same area), we may find they share a common ancestor even though no paper document is ever found. That is, if the known descendant of Family Group 1 is shown to have the same paternal ancestor as a proven descendant of Family Group 4, we can conclude that Family Group 4 is part of Family Group 1 regardless of the lack of paper documentation. It is easy to see that DNA analysis is a very powerful tool that may allow us to resolve many complications. If DNA of several present day English Pennington cousins with proven but different lines of descent were made, we may be able to connect Ephriam and other New World Penningtons with specific ancestors and therefore extend the lines of descent by hundreds of years. DNA analysis is a genealogical tool of unprecedented power. And it is already relatively inexpensive, costing about $225 per blood analysis. In my opinion it is exactly the sort of thing the PRA as an organization ought to utilize in a formal way. We have only to begin. JP

Hi Judie; I would gladly share any information that i have with you. Like i said in this post, I have scant info on my ggfather, Wilson Pennington,I think he was in some way connected to Samuel Pennington and Simeon Pennington of Jackson county, Tn.As well as to the Richard Pennington family of Monroe co., Ky. But proving all of this is another story, Just how much have you researched your Penningtons in the area?I have done some research and have some names of different Penningtons and if they would help you I will share them with you.

Eunice, Please see the reply I posted to Tom Pennington's message. Clay Co., Tn., borders Monroe Co., Ky., as you probably know. I think my Elizabeth may be linked to your and Tom's lines. I need to check on her birth date -- will post to the list -- as the dates I have for Elizabeth now would have her only sixteen when she married Rodden Thompson. The Cherry line links to several of my other family, and I'll follow up on that. Doug Moore has a lot of that family's data at his web site.

I don't know who her parents were. Rodden and his father, Archibald Thompson, b. 1736, settled along the Cumberland River in what is now Monroe Co., KY., near the Tennessee (now Clay Co.) line; Jackson Co., Tenn., also borders Monroe. Elizabeth was twenty-one when she married Rodden, who had previously been married to Mary Ray. So far as I've been able to learn, Elizabeth's family does not connect to my other Pennington line, which is Lucy Bugg (m. James Gee in 1797), whose mother was Lucy Pennington, a descendant of Sir Thomas Pidington (Pennington) of old Surry. Doug Moore has researched the Pennington line in Monroe-Jackson-Clay Counties, and you can check his web page at http://www.public.edu/~moore or http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=dou gmoore to see what he might have for your Wilson. I'll check to see what I can find, and also look for the Denham family, as I believe they are also a Monroe County family. Here's the Elizabeth and Rodden family as I have it now, based on several sources, including Doug Moore: Descendants of Elizabeth Pennington 1 Elizabeth Pennington 1790 - . +Rodden Thompson 1769 - 1852 .... 2 Elswick Thompson 1807 - ........ +Martha Rush 1808 - .... *2nd Wife of Elswick Thompson: ........ +Mary Haney Hix 1839 - .... 2 Lydia Thompson 1809 - .... 2 William Thompson 1812 - 1843 ........ +Mary Rush 1815 - .... 2 John Thompson 1815 - ........ +Phoebe Emmert 1820 - .... 2 Roden Thompson 1819 - 1846 ........ +Jane Means Harlan 1819 - 1889 .... 2 Wes Thompson 1820 - .... 2 Nancy L.

Does anyone have a John Pennington born about 1777 or William Pennington born about 1802 died abt 1891 married Christinia Mace. I'm at a lose here. I can't find anything on these two men who are the son's of Richard Pennington. Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.

Claudine, This is in response to your Dec. 27 query re John Pennington and his wife Nancy Harris. I see that Jeanne Thomas answered your question of the dates of their birth and death. I might note that Jeanne is the daughter of Jim Perkins who spent many years researching the Group V Penningtons and deserves much credit for his contribution. Johns father was Revered Charles Pennington who covered a lot of territory as a Baptist Preacher. My wife and I started with Jim Perkins research and followed Rev. Charles through his travels starting in Grayson Co. VA, to Russell Co. VA, through the seventeen years that he spent in White Co. TN. We are from White County and live fairly close to there so can spent quite a bit of time there. John and Nancy are buried in a family cemetery on the White Co./Putnam County line, most likely on the property they owned. The cemetery is on a knoll, encompasses about one and one-half acres, and is fenced and well kept. We have photos that clearly show the dates of birth and death. His son Charles is also buried there. We would be delighted to share information with you. What is your linage to John and Nancy. We have been trying to gather information on all of their children.

If this refers to my post, my intention was not meant to be mean or hateful, rather it was to be informative and to point out the dilemma that we,"orphans" Pennington are in. Some are fortunate enough to have found their families fairly easy, others, like myself, have found only long looks and and little returns, I have been looking for thirty years and have never found back further than my great grandfather. I know of a lady that bought one issue of Pennington Pedigrees magazine and there it was, her whole line, back to the frontier.I bought it for several years and a lot of back issues and what did I find, about two mentions of my entire family.And then when I submitted my personal query, it came back so that I hardly recognized it. So I never meant to be anything other than informative.
