Carmen,
The land document you posted between Eastridge and Elijah Pennington would
have to be the middle Elijah born 1820-1822 because his son was only 1 year
old (the youngest Elijah) and the William Elijah (Elige) Pennington

My apologies. I accidently sent out a partial message to the group intended

> expected from this test?
It is possible to find out that you share a common ancestor with a lineage
that may stretch back to 1585 in some cases. It does not tell you when or
where you connect to that line. DNA tests are very limited in what they
can tell you unless they can be correlated with a paper trail
Good Morning To All,

I am looking for some additional information on Andrew Pennington who was in Ashe County NC Census page 31A in the 1840 Census, age 20-30, and Ephraim Pennington was on the same page living alone, age 70-80. Andrew is in the Ashe County 1850 Census as age 36, wife Elizabeth age 37, children Mary (14), Levi(13), John(19), Ephraim(9), Martha, and Ephriam age 81 is living with him. I assume Ephraim is Andrew's father. On March 13, 1854 Andrew sold some land on the Little Laurel to Elijah Ephraim Pennington(B
Dear Viola,
No it is not too late to enter the DNA Study. This will be an
ongoing study into the future. The first phase tried to get sequences from
known PRA groups or lineages. Now Any male Pennington (or similar
spelling) can enter the study and compare their Y chromosome sequence with
that of a known lineage. The only snag is you need to find a male with the
surname Pennington who is related to you to take the test. This test only
works for males and is based on the fact that most men kee

I didn't pursue proving Elige was really William Elijah Pennington because I
do not believe that my family decended from Elige or William Elijah
Pennington. While searching I found 4 or 5 family trees that referred to
Elige as William Elijah. Carmen and I talk frequently and had discussed
this, so I referred to him as William Elijah (Elige) to clarify which one I
was talking about. I am the great granddaughter of the younger Elijah whom
we have been calling Elijah Ambrose Pennington. He was reall

I WOULD LIKE TO THANK EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU WHO HAVE GIVEN ME THE FREEDOMS I AND OTHERS HAVE.
THE LIFE YOU RISKED WAS NOT IN VAIN, ALTHOUGH OUR GOVERNMENT HAS NOT KEPT THEIR END OF THE DEAL IN TAKING PROPER CARE OF YOU..
EVERYDAY, MY PATIENCE IS TESTED WHEN I SEE WHAT A RAW DEAL MOST OF YOU ARE GETTING..PLEASE DO NOT LET THEM TAKE WHAT YOU DESERVE AWAY FROM YOU.....
KEEP FIGHTING..YOU KNOW HOW !!!..YOU WOULD NOT GIVE UP WHILE FIGHTING FOR YOUR COUNTRY, DON'T GIVE UP NOW...

Below I have copied a letter to me from Bennett Greenspan
president of Family Tree DNA. I am asking anyone in the Pennington DNA
study who knows EXACTLY how they are related to someone else in our study
to contact that person (through your family group leader) and make sure it
is OK to share this information, then either send me or preferably FTDNA

All FTDNA need is boxes connected by lines and the participation

Carolyn, gee, why did many brothers name their children the same, i.e.
Ephraim...... oh, to sort it all out! I descend from Richard Pennington (c1752)
whose father was Ephraim, lived in the same NC area, was REv. soldier, and married
the youngest sister of Daniel Boone. I belong to Group 4.... and hopefully,
some of the DNA tests will link our groups.
What you have sent is informative.....could the Ephraim Pennington, age 70-80
in 1840 (b. c1760 have been a brother to my Richard?? Possibly. Two Ephra
Yes Mike you can sign a release in our study and some already have.
However it only really applies to 6 couples in various PRA groups since
these are the only ones who actually know who their common ancestor is!
All of these have signed releases so they know who they match. Nick.

Hi Nick-
This sounds like a real nice idea- I would definitely like to share-
However-
if I remember correctly most of us donated DNA anonymously- therefore as
things stand today this would be hard
for us to do.
Maybe there is a possible way to do it for those of us that want to share-
We could send you permission to share our names with the others that are
willing to participate.
Let us know-
Thanks
Mike

Hi everyone,
Carolyn, I was just rereading some of my recent messages and came across
yours again, of Nov. 1. Or actually, I found a reply that you had sent

William Elijah (Elige) Pennington and I am curious if you have
documentation that his name was indeed, William Elijah. If this is the
son of Macajah and Rachel, I have never seen any documents at all on
which this first name for Elige was given. Please let me know what the
