| August 10, 1999: | The family of Clarence Joseph Pentecost has been
added. Please welcome new researcher Tai
Pentecost Powell. To help Tai make connections with this line, it is
important to note for obvious purposes of ethnicity that her grandfather, Clarence Joseph
was white and her grandmother Georgia Watson was black. Any help that anyone could
provide would be greatly appreciated. Welcome aboard Tai. The Line of Scarborough Pentecost of Virginia has been changed to the line of Francis Pentecost of Virginia. Francis is the son of Scarborough & Rachael Pentecost already presented on Pentecost.org, which means another connection has been made. This line now includes the former orphan file of Scarbaul Pentecost. Way to go. I'm not going to say new researcher, as Marie has been a long-time researcher of the Pentecosts, so I'll just say that Marie Blocher has joined the Pentecost.org effort. She is a member of the Francis Pentecost line. Welcome Marie! Orphan files have been update: Jesse Pentecost of Somersetshire, England Phillip Pentecost of England |

lines on the page to seven. First, the Family of William Pentecost of England has been
added to our family list below along with new contributor/researcher John F. Pentecost (this line goes back a few miles).
This family was our first orphan line (see entry for August 2, 1998 below).
Next, the Family of George Samuel Pentecost
of South Carolina>Texas has been added and is presented by contributor/researcher Alton Rogers. Most recently, we've add the Family
of Scarborough Pentecost of VA>MS
to our page presented by Lynn Chatham.
That's three lines now that include a Scarborough or some strange derivitive
thereof. One of the three original founders of the page finally added his family data to pentecost.org. The Family of Scarborough Pentecost of VA>TN>MO is up completely. Before, we had been providing a link to John's genealogy site. John does a good share of the web writing for pentecost.org (obviously, someone other than John is writing this blurb!). John provides a great deal of information on this line, and in a nicely done format. This line is a MUST SEE. |
