Carmen, A lot of the info I have on the Penningtons came from your website. Here's what I have on Susannah and Abraham's children: Jane b. aft 1825 Ward b. aft 1825 Martha b. 1828 VA Susannah b. abt 1830 John Pennington b. aft 1830 Rebecca b. abt 1832 VA Edward P. b. Aug. 22 1835 Washington b. abt 1836 Abraham b. 1837 I got the info on the children from the LDS site; submitters are M. B. and Patricia Flanary, Memphis, TN Abraham was in Jackson County, Missouri by March 8, 1848 where he was named administrator of Elijah Flannery's estate. The following is an abstract found in Jackson County Wills and Administrations, 1828-1862 by Victor P. Meador, 1997: G-143* Elijah Flannery. Abraham Chrisman, sec. by Alexander Chiles & Nimrod Chrisman, makes bond of $700 to admn. estate. 8 March 1848. I don't know where Nimrod Chrisman fits. Also, from my notes: "There is an Edward Chrisman who married Susan Hightower in Jackson County, Missouri September 25, 1856. Another source has them married in Virginia." I don't know which Chrisman founded the bank here (someone bought them out 20 years or so ago; it was Chrisman-Sawyer Bank and I had my account there)--still searching. Never dreamed the bank founders were distant relatives! There are some interesting Civil War stories about the Flannerys/Flanarys in Jackson County. I have them married into the Penningtons several times. Let me know what interests you. Vanette
