  BRIAN PENDLETON AND HIS DESCENDANTS, 1599-1910, Compiled by Everett HallPendleton, Privatley Printed MCMX, found in the DAR Library, Washington,DC. Page 80. 42. Simeon-5 Pendleton (Col. Joseph-4, Joseph-3), was born about1733, at Westerly, RI, and died there in October 1819. Simeon Pendletonwas a farmer and lived at Westerly nearly all his life. The Westerly TaxList of 1757 shows that he was assessed two shillings there in that year.On the 24th of February, 1766, the Town Council gave him and his family acertificate of residence to the Selectmen of Stonington, Conn., but it isunlikely that Simeon remained there long, as all his children arerecorded at Westerly and no reference appears stating that any of themwere born elsewhere. He was in all probability the Simeon Pendleton who served as privatein Capt. Joseph Pendleton's Co., Westerly militia, in 1776, and wasappointed Ensign of the 1st Westerly Co., 1st Regt. King's CountyMilitia, in 1777 and 1778, as the other Simeon Pendleton who also livedat Westerly in those years --[221] Simeon-6 -- would more likely be theone who was enrolled in the 3rd Westerly Co., in which were also enlisteda brother and other near relatives of that Simeon. Simeon-5 Pendleton was one of the executors of the will of hisfather-in-law, Walter Palmer of Stonington (dated 5 Oct, 1785, proved 3Jan 1785), and received therefrom the house at Westerly that Palmerbought of Simeon'[s mother. His own will, dated at Westerly, 12 Oct 1819,proved 25 October 1819 (C & P Rec., Vol. 2, p. 331), names daughtersMercy, wife of Joseph Lawton; Bathsheba Babcock; Sally, wife of DavidPendleton; Lucretia, wife of Libbeus Pendleton; and son Ethan Pendleton. Simeon married at Westerly, RI, 15 Jan 1760 (10 January inStonington Ch. Records.), Mary Palmer, daughter of Walter and Mercy(Hinckley) Plamer. She was baptized at Stonington, 21 March 1742(Westerly Rec. and "Palmer Groups," page 162). Children from Westerly Record, Book 3, p. 128.
