Frances Pennington ⁶⁶⁶

  Research Notes:

From: Edna Shannonhouse, Nov 1995
Henry Pennington may be her step father. The 200 acres of land she wanted to patent apparently had been vacated by the Graves family. When Frances obtained the four headrights is not known.

There is a Henry Peddington mentioned on page 279 of Clayton Torrence's book entitled "Old Somerset on the Eastern Shore of Maryland: A Study in Foundations and Founders." He is listed as one of the "first settlers" in Somerset County in the Annemessex section between 1661/2 and 1666. ⁶⁶⁶
