I have been tracing the Peacock Information that Daddy Peacock left with us. The 1850 census for Henry County is on line and I found Washington Hamilton and Elizabeth Pennington Peacock listed in the census. They are Daddy Peacock's great grandparents. Their son Richard is Daddy Peacock's Grandfather. His father was James Allen Peacock. Momma said his mother's name was Penelope Pierce Peacock. Everyone called her "Penny."
There are two articles about cemteries in Henry county on the Henry County Historical Group website. One of the articles is about the Peacock Cemetery and one is about the Culp-Kirkland cemetery. Just happens to be the main two I have been searching for. Go to http://www.hchg.org/ and click on archives and then cemeteries.
I hope to go to Abbeville very soon and get some pictures and more information for you on the Peacocks and the Hollands and Kirklands.

I've been looking into Elizabeth Penningtons family and found it strange that they had names like "Wind Clan" Pennington (big Mvskoke clan) and White Eagle Pennington pre-1800's. I thought they were indigenous but if you look at the records there is nothing said about that other than "Indian" traders.
Does anyone have any data on them?
