He was the son of Coleman Pendleton and Martha Gilbert/Pendleton.

He married Sarah Jane Thomas on November 27, 1838 in Hancock County, Georgia. He graduated from South Carolina Medical College 1837-1838 and was a practicing physician in Sparta, Georgia after graduation. He is identified with the development of agricultural science. He originated
the Pendleton Formula for the manufacture of fertilizers and was the first to use animal matter as plant food. He also worked with his son, William, and they were the first to grind cotton seed cake into meal and use it as an ingredient in fertilizers. He was chairman of the Agriculture and Horticulture Department at the University of Georgia from 1872 to 1877.
