[5353] "The English Origin of James Penniman"
Clifford L. Stott
TAG v71, pp12-18 (Jan 1996)
"James Pennyman or Penniman (James), as the name became known in New England, was baptized
at Chipping Ongar, Essex, on 29 July 1599 and died at Braintree, Massachusetts, on 26
December 1664. He was married at High Laver, Essex, 26 July 1631, to Lydia Eliot, who was
baptized at Nazeing, Essex, on 1 July 1610, daughter of Bennet and Lettice (Aggar) Eliot.
Lydia married second, at Medfield, Massachusetts, 7 [December?] 1665, to Thomas Wight. She
died, probably in Medfield, before 19 July 1676, when her estate was inventoried."
