The 125th consecutive family reunion.

 

William Penhall and Mary (Mitchell) Penhall left St. Austell, Cornwall England and arrived in Ellis Island New York on December 1st 1880.  

 

They traveled with William's sister Annie and the couples three small children first traveling to Brady's Bend, then to Reynoldsville and finally purchasing a plot of land and building a house in Rathmel in the spring of 1885 now known as the Myer's house.  

 

In 1896 John Penhall married Mary Eliza Charlton and from this union, ten children were born.  Today, after seven generations we still occupy a great deal of Rathmel with the names McAninch, Hetrick, McClinsey, Uplinger just to name a few.  

 

We thank God for keeping us close and strong as a  family and we praise Him for carrying us through the hard times.  We want to thank our wonderful friends and neighbors for all the love and support you have shown us over the years. Photo is from the Reynolsville Grange on 8/22/10
