Edward Pennington - Continued...This is generation three only!
Comments: Edward "Neddy" Pennington's descendants is probably one of the better documented lines. Edward moves to Lee County, Virginia sometime in the 1790's. The area in which he owned land and lived is now called Pennington Gap. Edward is listed in the Bastardy Bonds of North Carolina with an illegitimate child named Ann by Agnes Little. This child is recorded in the 1800 Ashe County, North Carolina census with Micajah Pennington and Rachel Jones. It is assumed that she died at a young age because there is no further record of her.
Edward lived to be 97 years old and was the father of eleven children. Most of these children stayed in Lee County, Virginia, however some of his descendants lived in Tennessee and Kentucky. For more information on this family, please refer to Early Settlers of Lee Co., VA, and Adjacent Counties Vol. 1 & 2.
