It is Saturday 27th December 2003 and I have not touched this site for a long time or even played with the information but now that i have resigned from our baseball board i will have time to attack it again.
In the past I made one error which has possibly sent me up the wrong path.
The Penhale/Penhall family of John Johns Penhale and his wife Elizabeth LATHLEAN arrived 1849 on the three mast ship the "WILLIAM MONEY" from St Austel, Cornwall. and settled in Yelta, Moonta. South Australia [SA]. I will re check this and go again.
I have a copy of a diary from a passenger on this ship which makes very chilling reading at first. Why, because it looks like John and Elizabeth lost a baby girl during the voyage.
It looks like the family name switched over to Penhall a couple of generations ago and I will try and find out why.

- In memory of my father Jack Penhall (3 KB)
Jack passed away 9th July 1994 age 75 years. You always think what if, and i am the same. I should have talked to him more when he was with us, instead I kept on putting this family tree idea off.
