We have already been in touch with Tortiegirl, but thought we would post in this as well in case others where interested.

We have a number of families in the Thurnham area including: Croskell, Pennington, & Hornby. If anyone is interested in these names we are happy to correspond.

Hi Dianer

We are also interested in the Pennington name. Dianne is descended from William Pennington (1789-1878) & Margaret (1796-1885) from the Thurnham area. Their daughter, Margaret Ann(1835-1916) m John Croskell, who is a great great grandfather. One of his sons then emigrated to Australia.

The 1841 census shows that a Thomas Pennington aged 90 was living with William and Margaret at Barrow Greaves Ellel.

We have a bit of information on them and would love to catch up. We are unsure of any connection, but the surname and area match so there is likely to be some relationship somewhere.
