On the 28th of July 1700, Edmund Pendleton and Mary, his wife, wereadmitted to membership in the First Church of Stonington (ChurchRecords). On the 30th of April, 1750, inventory of his estate was presented tothe town council for probate. It amounted to 1375 pounds and includedwearing apparel...etc. The descendants of Edmund Pendleton, Sr., are not numerous, as manyof them remained unmarried, and of those who did marry few had largefamilies. The marriage of Edmund does not appear to be of record, but wehave his wife's first name, Mary, from the Stonington Church records. His children, as shown in the administration on his estate and inthe baptismal records of the Stonington Churches are in uncertain order. Sources: Early New England Pendletons; R.I.

RIGR: Edmond Pendleton, named in his father's will.
