Rene'e, Thanks so much for the offered help--I'm sure I will have questions periodically--I always do. I will let you know about the pedigrees. Barbara is just as bewildered as we are about the mail and I made the same comment to her about the pony express :) I did hit a wall for a while but my brother invaded my grandmother's home and "borrowed" documents for me (with my parent's permission, of course). Grandma was recently diagnosed with alzheimer's and my parents did not want the documents lost, so I've become the keeper. They gave me a ton of info, which I'm still sifting through, and right I'm now waiting for some death records so I can solidly verify my Penington ancestors. Again with the snail mail, of course, so it takes a while but it's very exciting everytime a new document comes and I add another piece to the family puzzle! To all Pen(n)ington Cousins: I also got my sticky little hands on 4 Teague magazines. One documents Abraham Penington(my supposed ancestor) receiving 160 acres of land from William Teague (also my ancestor) on May 14, 1714 in Elkton, Cecil Co, MD. Someone was selling these books on the internet and I bought them. They were published by the Teague Family Memorial Assoc. a long time ago--the dates on mine are from July 1968-April 1969. Does anyone know if there were more of these books published? I've found nothing on the internet. If so, does anyone else have any of these books? I would love copies, and I will be happy to scan in the pages that mention Abraham Penington and email them if anyone's interested. Have a great day!

As for the mail - I surely understand the pony-express. But let me or Barbara Pennington [email protected] know if you have not gotten your publication in, say, the next two weeks. Okay? Genealogy - there is always something new for us to learn, I think that is what keeps us interested. All of us here on the mailing list will help with questions or directions - just ask away. Let us know where your brick wall is or 'how' to find something - we're happy to help. We'll work on the lunch thing - OK?
