Daniel is the son of Levi Pennington and Elizabeth Henson. He was born in Ashe county, NC and is a brother to Dora, Daniel (born in 1813 and died in 1898 in TN), Edy, Hiley, William, Caroline, Larkin, Harvey, John, Anderson, Andrew, Elizabeth, Mary Rebecca and Martha Pennington. He was born 4th to last.
He had married Elizabeth Osborne on 17 Dec 1854 and they are the parents of Matilda J Pennington Faircloth, Levi Wilson Pennington and Solomon S Pennington.
The 1870 census indicates that he was already "insane". He had returned to his parents' home, apparently separated from his wife and children who were in Johnson county, TN.
Daniel's marker, number 543, indicates he was the 543rd person admitted to the new Western NC asylum after it opened in 1883. He was, therefore, likely admitted in the late 1880s. He would remain in care here for about 20 years before his death.
His niece, Polly, is also buried here.
His date of death provided by Victoria Taylor True.
