Edward "Neddy" Pennington's descendants is probably one of the better documented lines. Edward moves to Lee County, Virginia sometime in the 1790's. The area in which he owned land and lived is now called Pennington Gap. Edward is listed in the Bastardy Bonds of North Carolina with an illegitimate child named Ann by Agnes Little. This child is recorded in the 1800 Ashe County, North Carolina census with Micajah Pennington and Rachel Jones. It is assumed that she died at a young age because there is no further record of her.

Edward lived to be 97 years old and was the father of eleven children. Most of these children stayed in Lee County, Virginia, however some of his descendants lived in Tennessee and Kentucky. For more information on this family, please refer to Early Settlers of Lee Co., VA, and Adjacent Counties Vol. 1 & 2.

From "Historical facts of Lee County, Virginia. Pennington Gap, Virginia".: Pennington High School, 1930.
"Material was collected by the Junior history class of Pennington High School ..." Cf. Foreword.

"Edward Pennington came to this county from New River, probably North Carolina, in about 1790. He built his first home somewhere on the banks of the Powell River aoubt two miles east of the town of Dryden. Mr. Pennington married a Miss Flanary. The Flanary family had preceded him and settled in the neighborhood of Yokum Fort. After marrying, he took his young wife, and went to the south side of the gorge, of what is now Pennington Gap, a distance of about six miles from the old Yokum Fort. With a horse, bridle, and Flint Lock gun he bought a tract of land from people whose name was Butchers. On this tract of land he built a house consisting of three pens in a row, and one and one half stories high. The house which he built was torn down about the year 1880 amd pm ots site a frame house was erected. Edward
