Research Notes

  • It appears that there were 2 death certificates filed, each with slightly different information. Since the surname spelling "Pennix" matches 1 death certificate and the headstone, it is used here as the preferred spelling.
  • In 1920, he is living in the household of his daughter Bertha along with a "Mary L" who is identified as his wife. She has not been identified.
