Note: Shelby County records have misinterpreted Eliza's last name as Bennett. This is probably due to the handwriting. If one looks closely at what has been interpreted as Bennett, you can make Pennell out of it. The family records and oral tradition have been preserved to verify Eliza's last name is actually Pennell.
