I've been researching this family for almost 3 years now. I joined this group in hopes to find new information. Right now I have hit a brick wall with Richard Pennington and his wife Eleanor Pritchard who settled in Pendleton County, W.Va. There is a date of abt 1745 but I don't know if that is referring to when he settled in Pendleton County or if this is his birthdate. Any information on this and any other Pennington from this area will be appreciated. I will also be willing to share information with anyone interested in this line of Pennington's. Thanks Debbie
