Hi You All, Mary Hudson, County Coordinator of the Patrick Co., Va GenWeb Page, has asked me to let you know she will be away for two weeks and will post any queries when she returns. Mary has done a terrific job with the web page. Hope everyone will visit. http://www.rootsweb.com/~vapatric/ If you have any contributions to make to the web page I know Mary will be very glad to hear from you. Thanks, Barb S.

Here are some Patrick Co., VA records from my PENNINGTON research: The following was provided from Viola Pennington - Ell: Dr. Isaac Pennington's fathers name was John Pennington who lived and died in England (this is verbal info. from relatives). Dr. Isaac was born in England and came to America to seek his fortune. He lived in Lycoming, PA, N.C., and PATRICK CO., VA. He married Agnes (Brown) Martindale. The marriage certificate was seen by a relative who has lost track of it. The original was found in the town of Blackburg, near Radford, VA. They were married at Dunkard's Bottom, VA (now under water), but I understand all the records were moved to Blacksburg, VA. No proof.

Pennington born 8 Oct 1806 in Patrick Co., VA married 16 Nov 1828 to Mary Ann (Chambers) Deckard, daughter of Anthony and Mary Rosebury Chambers. Married Nancy Unknown in 1855. Died 12 Nov 1882 in Smithville, Indiana in the Lucas Cemetery. 5) Ruth Pennington born 24 June 1808 in Patrick Co., VA married 28 Apr 1828 Lawson Oliphant and died 1 Dec 1886 in Hobbiesville. 6) Sarah Pennington born 1810 in Patrick Co., VA married 3 May 1832 to Willis Lamb. 7) Rachel Pennington born 13 Mar 1812 in Patrick Co., VA married 13 June 1836 to William Lucas, died 25 Dec 1881 in Brown Co., Indiana and buried in the Lucas Cemetery. Abstracts of Henry County, Virginia Deed Books III & IV shows "p. 32-33: 20 Jan 1789, Isaac Cloud of Surry County, NC to Isaac Pennington of Henry County, VA for the sum of thiry pounds sells and conveys to Pennington 167 acres of land in Henry County on Elk Creek adjacent to the lines of Marr and Hanby." There was a land transaction between Jacob Fulk and Joseph Pennington in Surry County, 9 Dec 1809 made in the presence of Henry Lamb and Jacob Smith. The 1812 tax list of Surry County North Carolina shows Joseph Pennington with 460 acres and one white poll; Isaac Pennington with 349 acres and one white poll; and Henry Lamb, Sr. with 100 acres and no white poll. Apparently Grace Martindale's family stayed in Patrick County. The 1810 tax records for Patrick County, Virginia show Daniel, John and William B. Martindale and Isaac Pennington on the same page. Back in the 1787 tax records of Virginia, several Penningtons, including an Isaac were listed in Bourbon County which was a large part of what was to become eastern Kentucky. That countie's tax list also had William Anderson, William Lamb, and Jeremiah Dunn. Perhaps Joseph and Grace were even married in Kentucky? Daughter Sarah Lamb's 1880 census record says her mother was born in Maryland and her father was born in North Carolina. The 1830 Indiana Census shows Joseph Pennington and Joseph, Jr. on page 157 and Samuel on page 165 of Greene County. In the 1840 census Joseph Pennington (Jr.) is listed in Monroe County on page 104 along with Alexander and John W. Lamb, while Samuel Pennington is on page 80 and Willis Lamb is on page 82. Land records for Indiana show that a Joseph Pennington had land in Lawrence County in 1831. Samuel Pennington had a land transaction in 1836, the same year the Joseph Pennington estate was settled. Patrick Co., VA information from our BROWN research: Patrick Co., VA Revolutionary War Soldier in Peter Hairston�s Company listed... William BROWN. (Could possibly be a relation to Agnes Brown) I have a hunch that the records of the below Augustine Brown who resided in Patrick Co., VA, is the father of the Agnes Brown. But unproven at this time. Henry Co. Commonwealth's Grants or Patent, History of Henry & Patrick Co., VA: Page 478, Book #10 William Brown, purchased 170 acres on 9 Aug, 1787, on the South fork of Leatherwood Creek, adjoining Williams' line. Page 647, Book A Augustine Brown, purchased 324 acres on 14 July 1780, on the branches of Peter's Creek & Russel's Creek. Page 850, Book D Augustine Brown, purchased 162 acres on 10 Apr 1781, on the waters of Peter's Creek, adjoining the County line.

Page 611, Book U Augustine Brown, purchased 330 acres on 2 Dec 1785, on the South side of the North Fork of Little Dan River. Page 170, Book X Augustine Brown, purchased 320 acres on 2 Dec 1785, on the branches of Little Peter's Creek, adjoining Lawson's, etc. Martindale research: Lawson Oliphant's younger sister Nancy married another Martindale, Andrew, who was born 15 Mar 1824 in Patrick County, Virginia which bordered Surry County, North Carolina on the north. There were no Martindales in the available early census records for Virginia, but they are in the 1810 tax list for Patrick County. * * * Apparently some of Daniel Martindale's family stayed in Patrick County. The 1810 tax records for Patrick County, Virginia show Daniel, John and William B. Martindale and Isaac Pennington. This was apparently Daniel Martindale, III because his children's births and marriages indicate he stayed in Patrick/Surry. It could be that the Isaac Pennington was Joseph's father. This would make Joseph an uncle of the Grahams who married Willis Lamb's brothers Alva and Samuel. The published marriage register for Patrick County did not show Grace's marriage. It could have been unrecorded, especially if it was a Quaker marriage, or they may have married in North Carolina. However, Daniel may have gone as far as Alabama. The following land transaction is recorded: * * * I hope this helps someone. Melinda Pennington

Hi Rooters, I have posted this before, but didn't find the answer, so am going to try again, on the chance that someone out there knows who these two women are! 1850 Russell census has #128 Ruth Bays 48 TN, Cynthia 29 VA George A. 7, (actually this is great grandfather George W. H.), James 5, John 3. 1860 Russell census has #110 Cynthia Bays 39 (seamstress), George B. 17, James K. P. 14, John T. 13, Edward 9, Ruth Bays 73 TN. Despite the fact that poor Ruth aged 25 years in the 10 years between the two census reports, I am still hoping to find one or more husbands for these two women! Was Cynthia Ruth's daughter or daughter in law? When I checked the marriage records for George and James, they stated under parents - Cynthia Bays. I am completely stuck! PLEASE someone, tell me who Ruth and Cynthia are! Thanks so much for any help you can give me! Anne Bays

With all the Thomas info I've been receiving, I have a bunch of duplicate names. Can you help me sort them out? Is Peter Thomas, son of Deborah Jordan and Charles Thomas, the same Peter Thomas that married Sarah Akers Dec. 31, 1826? Thanks for any help! Sherry Crawford dansher@cybrtown.com

Can someone confirm this? Is Moses Martin the father of David Harbour Martin that married Harriet E. Bowling? If so, do you know the name of Moses' wife? Thanks for any help. Sherry Crawford dansher@cybrtown.com
