Genealogy of Thorold and Marjorie Penn

This book is the result of years of research into one family tracing back the male and female lines the mothers as well as the fathers. The work was started by Thorold Penn my father and carried on by myself for nearly twenty years. You may find an interest in specific people maybe to help your own research. It will also be relevant if you have an interest in a specific place (see list below) as a piece of social history a slice through time. None of the people are particularly important they occupy the middle class in every generation. The book may also be of interest if you are considering research into your own family history; you could create this kind of thing for your own ancestors or hire a professional to do the same. In some ways I have been lucky in my choice of ancestors - publicans are one of the few professions recorded in official documents as far back as the seventeenth century and I have a lot of innkeepers in my tree.
