Kevin, Nardine, Steve, Robert, and Betty I just returned from a family "girls" trip to Padre Island, TX and was so excited to see all of the great information you had all provided. Thank You. Since the Brandon's are not my direct line I have not spent a lot of time on research, just collecting what others had provided me along the way. I was astonished to realize I had not connected my "Brandon dots". Mary Elizabeth Burk Brandon's mother was Christina Tenpenny. Christina's aunt was Sarah "Sallie" Tenpenny Brandon married to Jospeh Armstrong Brandon. I just read all of your postings and I need a day to absorb it. If any of you have an interest I do have quite a bit of data on Sarah 's father Nathaniel Tenpenny I will be happy to share upon request. I will back to you shortly with any data I have that may be of interest to you. Thanks again, this is so much fun. Diane Miller
