Smith. born 1852: Mary. born 1854, and
John. born 1856. Mrs. Mary Pendlcton,
in 1877. leaving a husband and these
three children.
Elizabeth Smith Pendleton was born
August IL, 1882. and died August .,
1851. On July s, 1899, she was mar
ricd TO Spottswood Lipscomb. with
whom She had eloped to Maryland from
a ball held in Richmond on the night
OF July 4. 1899.
l have thought that some OF the de-
scendants of this John Pcndleton might
be still living in Richmond and would
tell me his connection with the famous
Pendleton family, of which Edmund
Pcndieton G721-1S03) was the most
celebrated. have heard that this John
Pcndleton was really an atheist but
leept his seat in the Episcopal Church
for the sake Of appearances.
From careful examination of the
various Pendleton genealogies, | have
come to the conclusion that he must
have been the son Of John Pcndle-
ton u7l9-1793). an elder brother of
Judge Edmund Pendleton. This Johns
first wife was a Mary CD James and
they had four children, Edmund. John,
Elizabeth. and Mary. have never
seen whom this John Pcndlcton. Jr.,
married. but as the names John. Eliza
beth and Mary were repeated for his
children, I fancy IL indicates some
