My Pennington line comes from NC as where in NC I do not know and then into KY. I descend from Simeon Pennington who married Elizabeth Whitson?. I descend from their son Samuel Pennington who married Polly Rolston. My Dickens line I have been unable to trace as I can not find any information on Allen Dickens who married Lee Ann Farr. I descend from their daughter Nancy Ellen Dickens born July 13, 1879 in KY and died September 23, 1964 in Tompkinsville, Monroe Co., KY buried White Cemetery Tompkinsville, KY. who married Wolford Rouse.

I will keep my eye out for Shirley Johnson. My husband descends from Johnsons of OH, IN, and IL. I have started working on his Johnson line these last few weeks and I have so far gone back to 1824 (Indiana Johnson's) with documented proof. Speculation of John Johnson's father being Isaac Johnson born OHIO 1789 and drowned in Madison Co, IN 1840 at a logging camp (this much of Isaac we know of, just haven't proven this particular Isaac as John's father).

Sue, It could be John George, but I just don't know at this time. I'll try to look more closely at the specific pieces of property and see if indeed the reference to George Pennington's land is a piece earlier granted to John George. I do show a patent to John George in Brunswick Co in 1747. and another in Lunenburg Co in 1792 on Mazes Branch which is the one you referred to.

>From E-MAZING.COM/Genealogy Tip of the Day Genealogy Tip of the Day Tuesday July 10, 2001 Immigration Manifests Online Researching ships' passenger lists can be a hefty challenge, especially if you don't know which ship(s) to seek. The Cimorelli Immigration Manifests Online (CIMO) at http://www.cimorelli.com/safe/shipmenu.htm has the most impressive online immigration ship databases anywhere. The databases of ships from 1890-1930 can be searched by name or by date. With a name, you can search all voyages for the ship by date, and will be able to tell the ports of departure and arrival in the U.S. Earlier records prior to 1890 can be searched and displayed by ship name, date, departure port, ship's flag, captain, rig and weight. A massive database of shipwrecks in the North Atlantic is also included. There are also databases of Irish immigrants and Germans from Russia, among other smaller databases, at this site. This site is an essential one for your ships' passenger list research. - George G.

The only George I have is John George Pennington. Is it possible that it is him? John George Pennington is mentioned in other Lunenburg Co. records, such as being appointed surveyor of the road in 1756. 1765 was about the time Mecklenburg Co. was formed, so it's possible that his Mecklenburg Co. land was originally in Lunenburg Co. There is also a patent for John G. Pennington, Lunenburg Co., 1792. 250 acres on both sides of Maze's Branch, adjoining his own & Despanes lines. This would be before John George died, and I 've heard that sometimes it was years before these patents became official. Please let me know if you learn anything new regarding this deed information, as John George Pennington is one of my husband's direct ancestors. Thanks.

Thanks to all the e-mails received from my last posting in regard to Group 2 vs new Group. I am still looking for Franklin and I have some other information to share with you. I believe that Brian Cartwright found the right Robert Pennington (born about 1828 according to 1850 census). He was the son of Jacob Pennington (born about 1804) who was the son of another Jacob Pennington (born about 1765). According to my mother (Anna Treaster-Pennington), Robert was a civil war soldier. She thought his son Frank Pennington was about 12 or 14 when his father left. After the war, Robert did not return home and his wife Susan did not receive any news from or about him and assumed he was killed. However, when she took legal steps to declare him dead, she found he was still alive. The marriage was dissolved and she married a wounded veteran "by the last name of Wilkerson; they owned a grocery store in Clearfield County, PA". This last was confirmed by my cousin who is 86. She also said Frank worked for his keep before he was 10 years old, so he was probably in a different household. I found a Robert Pennington in Centre County in 1860 who was listed as age 36, living with the Kerr family and I wonder if this could be my Robert. There was a Franklin living with a Henry Pennington, but he was listed as 6 and is not the one I am looking for. There is a Frank Pennington buried in Halfmoon, Township, PA , who I believe is this 6 year old as the dates on the tombstone corresponds. If anyone needs it, I have the Index for the 1860 census of all the Penningtons in Centre County, PA. I am planning a trip to PA in the later part of July or early August and will try to find more information. Any facts that anyone has before I go would help. Thanks.

Mary McGinnis posted this to another list, but affects us all. ============================================================ I have just discovered that the SSA is raising the price by 286% for the most valuable tool that genealogists request, the SS-5 form, Original Application for SS Number... It is going up from its present $7 to $27, effective 1 July 2001. Reference: http://www.ssa.gov/foia/foia_guide.htm#_Toc517745431 This is untenable, since many people who do genealogy are older retired folks on fixed income... and this large increase appears to be intended to discourage the public from access to documents under the Freedom of Information Act. How can it cost $27 to receive a request, then make and mail a copy of the one page document??? ...Government is not intended to be making a profit... The $7 seems high, when you actually evaluate the task...and Researching costs more...Could it be that they have some awfully high paid clerks...and/or interns...???

I know the PRA wants to build a database of interesting websites that mention Penningtons in history. This is a very good one: "Catalogue of Papers of William Henry Cavendish Bentinck, 3rd Duke of Portland". If you got to http://mss.nott.ac.uk/cats/port_3rdduke15cat.html#top and search the page with the edit toolbar you will find many interesting letters from assorted well-to-do Penningtons to the Duke.

Thank you for pointing that out Barb. I agree that there is a strong likelihood of Charles George connecting to the Penningtons on So Indiana. I do have quite a bit of info on branches of this family, but still nothing on Charles George, George Charles, Charles, or a George who was born in the 1820s. The closest I have is Charles, s/o Mary Peters & Walter L Pennington. I have him as being born 1835. Further research in Meade County is probably a good direction to take in filling in some of these branches of the Penningtons from So Indiana. Pat, if you have any additional research on your line you can share, or have the time to dig deeper in this area, maybe we can find a way to connect. But at this point, I don't seem to have anything more. Steve P keenebj@juno.com wrote: >Hi, >Meade County, KY is right across the Ohio River from Crawford County, >Indiana.
