JAMES PENNIMAN, the emigrant ancestor of the PENNIMAN family in America, was one of the settlers of the town of Braintree, Massachusetts, having gone there from Boston where he at first lived. He came over in the ship Lion in 1631 with his wife Lydia ELIOT (sister of John ELIOT, the Apostle to the Indians), and having as fellow passengers, John WINTHROP, Jr. (son of the Governor of Massachusetts Bay, and himself first Governor of Connecticut), John ELIOT and his brother Jacob ELIOT. The ELIOTS came from Naseing, Essex, while the seat of the PENNIMAN family was probably in Yorkshire, where the English PENNYMAN family still live at Marske, in Ormesby Hall (see PENNYMAN Records). The connection between the English and the American families has never been satisfactorily established. The statement sometimes made that James, the emigrant was a brother of Sir William PENNYMAN, the distinguished Royalist is not substantiated by any known record, though it is not impossible that it may be true. As James was a Puritan it has been suggested that his Royalist relations kept no record of him or that the records were destroyed. (For James, the Emigrant, see Town Records of Braintree, Massachusetts. For Lydia, his wife, see Town Records of Medfield, Massachusetts where her second marriage as widow of James, is mentioned and she is stated to have been the sister of John ELIOT, the Apostle. For Penniman see the PENNYMAN Records, York 1904, Appendix N, American Pennimans.)
