Introduction
The information which appears
here was produced from the data contained in the John
French Master File (JFMF). Please
remember that much of the information came from
other Pennington researchers and depending on
the researcher's knowledge, expertise and sources,
may be in error. At times, John French, who
had researched the Pennington family for over
twenty-five years made decisions about what he
entered based on his own opinion.
Viola Ell
is working hard to update this information.
