Hi Ruth, Boy, I have Bakers all over my family tree in VA and WV but haven't pursued the branch. They are related by marriage and not direct lines in my various families at least right now.

Hi Ted, You certainly may ask a question. Yes, the Hampshire Book does mention many Parkers back as far as 1750's. There is also a Fort Parker located on North River in Hampshire Cty at North River Mills. There are no Bruces or Redmans in this book. But another of my books on the Capon Valley of Hampshire Cty does mention the Bruces and no Redmans. I have to ask - What is your Redman grandfather-in-law's name? Another book on Old Frederick Cty. has Redman ( c.1750), Bruce and Parkers in it also. Ted, make sure - if you reply to my message that you click the "Reply All" button and share with the others on the two mailing lists. Thanks. Hope this helps you in digging up your lost grandfather.

Rene, Thank you for the information on the book. I thought you might find it interesting that Daniel Boone used to go hunting with my gggg grandfather, John Renta Baker. They were Longhunters in the state of KY and TN. Owsley County, KY is one place that John Renta Baker lived in and he died there in 1820. Owsley County named their city "Booneville" in honor of Daniel Boone. There is a Pennington connection with John Renta Baker. His g grandson, James A."Big Jim" Baker married Charlotte Bowling,(my g grand parents) g daughter of Jesse Bowling and Mary Pennington. Ruth Klein
Hi Gang, Well, I got a Father's Day gift from my sister. No, it's not strange at all - quite normal for my family. We all do that .. My family knows that I would rather have history book than food or clothes. When they find a book that they think I might want they use any excuse to get it for me. I even got one for my birthday one year from my dog - the card read "Happy Birthday from your Son". Well, I was not blessed with children . The card was signed " Love you bunchies - Bucky Gene" and they put his paw print in the card. We're a 'strange bunch but lots of love and sharing'. Back to the Book - It's creation and publication came about for the celebration of the 250th Anniversary for Hampshire County, WV. The Editors were Dr. Wilmer Kerns( a cousin and very prominent local historian) and Roberta Munske who was co-curator for the exhibit, "George Washington on the VA Fontier: the Surveys, the Settlers, the Forts" part of the 1999 Geo. Washington Bicentennial celebration, at the Kurtz Cultural Center in Winchester, VA.(my hometown). Just an outstanding compliation of local authors (about 70) working on each and every aspect of the developement of Hampshire Cty from the time it was part of Frederick Cty, VA. Many Photographs and a healthy surname listing. It even mentions Daniel Boone (PRA Grp 4) and Ft. Cox. The book is hard bound with 262 pages chocked full of information. I don't know the price of the book but if you want any more information about it you can contact : Dr. Wilmer Kerns c/o Hampshire Cty. Visitors Bureau 91 South High Street Romney, WV 26757 Who knows - maybe your pet hampster will give you a present !

Hi Virginia and Suzane, I can't help with the Long Run Massacre but in one of my old books (The Frontiersman, Pg. 444 by Allan W. Eckert, Little,Brown & Co. Boston,1967- There is an excerpt about Benjamin Van Cleave. With many of our Penington cousins related by other surnames - prehaps this will help someone. Dec. 13, 1796 - Tuesday, The face of the Ohio Territory was rapidly changing. Early in the year had come the sale of Pittsburge and Philadelphia of other parts of The Seven Ranges for nearly $50,000 and eager settlers were flocking to their new land. To the west, along the Great Miami River, the first of the settlers had begun to arrive at Dayton, both by land and by water. The first party came by boat and was lead by BENJAMIN VAN CLEVE, arriving on April 1, ten days after putting out from Cincinnati (presently Fremont, OH). PG. 456 May 25, 1799 - Saturday If the plans of BEN VAN CLEVE, the Reverand William Hamer and some of the other settlers in Dayton had worked out as expected, it might have resulted in a good bit of revenue and fame coming to the new frontier settlement. Throughout most of the last fall they had helped at building a large and well fashioned flatboat. In early winter they had launched it in the Great Miami and tied it fast to await the swelling streams with spring rains. From that time until mid-March they had concentrated on getting the cargo gathered for a maiden voyage to New Orleans. Over two thousand excellent fur skins- bales of beaver, otter, muskrat, bear,raccoon, skunk and mink pelts - constituted the bulk of the cargo and the remainder was made up of five hundred extra-good smoked venison hams, pickled pork, smoked bacon and a hundred large deerskin bags filled with shelled corn. Visions of Dayton becoming a major frontier shipping port danced in the settlers' heads. Everything went well at first. The rains came when expected and on March 25 the flatboat had shoved off with a crew of ten, commanded by David Lowery, the man who designed the craft. It was an interesting though basically uneventful trip. In fact, the only occurance of note came when they picked up an unexpected passenger - a youth clinging doggedly to a little homemade raft about ten foot square. His destination, he said, was New Orleans, so they took him on and he paid for his passage by providing them at each camp stop with fresh game downed under the flintlock rifle. But the big impression the settlers had hoped to make in New Orleans failed to materialize when they arrived two months after leaving Dayton. The cargo was sold easily enough, though for hardly as much as expected, and an attempt to pole back upstream met with such difficulty that they wound up selling the flatboat also and returning to Ohio on horseback. The youth they had picked up in midstream did not return with them. He wandered about, dazzled with the excitment of this extravagant, bustling city which was more colorful than his imagination could possibly have pictured. During that first evening he struck up an acquaintance with a youth three years his senior who seemed knowledgable about the sea. They ate at a crowded, dirty pub and the young traveler very near choked, much to his companion's amuzement, on the first mug of rum he had ever drunk. Not until their third mug each, when both were feeling heady and not a little silly, did the sixteen-year-old from upriver realize that he didn't even know his companion's name, nor that youth his. He stuck out his hand and grinned lopsidedly and his voice was a bit slurred when he spoke. "By the way, my friend, my name's KENTON. SIMON. What's yours?" The older youth took his hand and shook it strongly. "Welcome to New Orleans, friend," he said. "Mine's LAFFITE, JEAN LAFFITTE."

Dan, Oh My - I started on the first sentence (Question) of your last message on GW (George) Washington and Anna Huddleston. This new information definitely changes the approach we should be trying. Again, taking small steps. I believe I would try to find the marriage of Wilburn or William to Anna in TN. Make sure that you stay open minded on both of their names. Many times I have found the name of Anne only to find out that her given name was Sarah Ann - so keep that in mind. Her name could possibly show up as Laura Ann - looking at the differences in her name from 1860-1870. I would start the marriage hunting in TN about 1856 (give or take 5 or 6 yrs.)since their the first documented child was Calaway. It is possible that they married in NC where William or Wilburn was born. Again stay open minded. If you are able to find a marriage - it could shead some light on one or both of their parents or another relative. As far as the cemetery plot I would keep this info in the back of your mind until you can validate the marriage. You might also want to check for any wills or probate in TN. Going back further in the census to 1850 at this point may serve to confuse the issues. I would stick with what you have found before traveling back further in time. I certainly hope that I have not confused you - that sure is not what I had in mind. Let us know how you are proceeding and if we can help or confuse you more, okay?

Hi Dan, You have a great deal of information here. Sometimes we have to take 'baby steps'. So let's sort all of this out. I tried to pick the middle of the road for the age of George. I looked for only George, no middle initial with a birth date between 1809 and 1824. 1860 Census Film M653_916 Pg. 248. Northwest Dist, Wake, NC. Shows: George 48 yrs old head of house W M (born in NC abt 1811) Christi "ANNA" , wife W F 28 yrs. born in NC abt.1831. Madora 6 yrs. born in NC Mary 5 yrs. born in NC Breckinrage 3 yrs. born in NC Verginia 3 month born in NC To verify this marriage - Source is North Carolina Marriage Bonds 1741-1868. George "H" Pennington and Christianna Thompson were married 27 Feb. 1853 in Wake, NC. The Bondsman was John R. Harrison, a witness was Jos. K. Marriott 1870 Census New Light, Wake, NC Film M593_1162 pg. 155. Forrestville Post Office. Shows: ALL WERE BORN IN NC George 60 yrs. old (1809) a farmer Christianna 37 yrs. old (she can't read) Mary 14 yrs. old Caroline 13 yrs. Breckenridge 11 yrs. James 9 yrs Olonza 4 yrs. Judson 1 yr. Buoregard 6 months old. I hope this helps you to sort things out a bit. Incidently, the only marriage I found for the ANNA HUDDLESTON was on 4 Oct 1849 to a WILBUR PENDLETON and this was listed in Clairborne Cty, TN Marriages 1838-1918.

Hi Gang, Just to let you know, I got my favorite thing today, the new issue of the Pedigree. I haven't completely finished reading yet but I wanted to let everyone know they should be getting theirs soon. Barrie has again done a great job putting it together. My thanks to her and all of the wonderful contributors to this issue. Outstanding variety, informative for many of our Family Groups ; behind the scenes of the PRA ; humor and the fact finding missions from our members. It seems that the issues just get better and better as we go along ; better material, better sources, better documentation on the family files. Loved the Bios - it's nice to put a face to all of these emails that we get. I knew that we had some very talented members and this is proof that they exist. Of special interest was the family story from England one of our new members, Mr. John Hickie submitted. Great stuff ! Pictures and the mystery Coat of Arms (new version). A tear-jerker was submitted by Edith Harris from FG 21. I have to say, Edith, by the time I got to the middle of your story , I was ready to call the Finkbiner's myself and make the purchase for you. God - does indeed work in mysterious ways. Simply Wonderful I guess it is safe to say the PRA's decision to bring the PP into the 21st Century using advanced techniques has paid off. I believe it has made it easier for our members to contribute material, submissions have not been misplaced and I think this new system has made the compilation easier on our miracle worker - our Editor, Barrie Petty. Thanks to everyone for contributing. Rene'e Davis, ARD, Family Groups PRA - Group 9 Pennington Research Association, Inc. www.penningtonresearch.org

Dan: I checked our master database (JFMF) and did not find a match for a "G W Pennington" or for "Anna Huddleston". I also did a quick search of our website and found that you have submitted three (3) queries in the past for one George Wilburn Pennington, b. 1829, d. 1889. Those queries were submitted in December 2001, May 2002 and Nov/Dec 2003. I checked the JFMF for George Wilburn Pennington, b. 1829, d. 1889 again but was not able to find a match. However, there are several George W. Pennington names as well as several George Washington Pennington names listed in our database. Many were born around the time you listed. In addition, there are several Huddleston names in our database but none of them matched what you listed. Keep trying! Hopefully someone on our mail list will spot your query and be able to help with your research. Gene Pennington (Group 7) Chairman Research Director Pennington Research Association, Inc. www.PenningtonResearch.org
Hi Dan, I know that you have posted your family info several times but I don't know if you received any answers. I know that the PRA (Pennington Research Assoc) does have some Huddleston's in our midst in Family Group 8. Might I make a suggestion? Some of our PRA members only subscribe to the PRA mailing list. It might help you to get some answers by subscribing to the PRA mailing list also. To do this - Send a blank email to (click here) [email protected] , type on the subject line - subscribe (nothing else) and send it. Then, in your Address Book add> New Contact - PRA with the email address of [email protected] and forward this message to the PRA. Hey, even if you don't find a positive connection at least you have made contact with all of the Pennington researchers around the world. I always post to both mailing lists whenever possible and almost always get a reply from someone out in cyberspace. "It pays to post to both".
