Ross Penington line is from Cecil County. I was able to obtain Ross F. (not T.) Penington's death certificate. He died in Baltimore City in 1892 at age 72. But he was born in Cecil County. Had been in the city 55 years when he died, so that means he was in Cecil County until age 17. This should help us connect him. He's definitely a Cecil County native. Any thoughts?

Hi Cheryl, On FTM CD #521, Md. Settlers and Soldiers, 1700-1800. In the Baltimore Sun Newspaper, 12/19/1846 pg. 2, there is a listing for the marriage 12/17/1846 of Ross T. to Sarah Mumma, daughter of David. Maybe if you can gt a copy of the page it may tll you more about him. Otherwise I can't find him anywhere else. The 1850 census for MD, in the 15th Ward, Baltimore Roll #M432-286 pg. 23, line 14(I think you already have) but as follows: Ross T. 29 a clerk w/m Sarah 23 w/f David F. 2 yrs. w/m Ann R. 8 months. w/f George A. H. M. Johnson 11 yrs. b/m Boy, I am almost as crazy s you are about this Ross guy. Sorry, I couldn't help more. Maybe the newspaper will help out.

Hi Rene: Thank you for the information. I did have the 1850 census, but not the newspaper. Do you know how I can get the Baltimore Sun newspaper page from back then? I just have to find something that says who Ross' parents were. I wonder if the records of the 1st Reformed Church in Baltimore City might have some notation on their parents names from their marriage record. That is the church Ross was married in. Sarah Mumma Penington was baptized in that same church, so her family records should be there back quite a ways. Has anybody looked at the lst Reformed Church records for Penington's? Also, any ideas on church records in Cecil County that I could research for Ross? He must have been baptized somewhere there. There can't have been that many churches in that area. Just keep digging, just keep digging. Regards, Cher At 09:56 AM 03/03/2004, you wrote: >Hi Cheryl, > On FTM CD #521, Md.

Hi Cheryl, Well, you might want to contact the MD State Archives; sometimes the Mormon Church has newspapers on film - I would look for the Church on film, also; the Baltimore Sun Newspaper is still in business too! You may want to check www.cyndislist.com, she has pretty good, on-line material for MD and it grows everyday, the best part is it's free ! Hey, my shovel is a nub from digging - but I love it anyway.
