His mother was called Penelope Lennard, and his father died before he was born. She lived 1925 - 1993. It is a very rare name, as there are only 12 on this site, compared to tens of thousands of Youngs. There is a famous ancestor, Kit Packe, who was lord mayor of London during the Commonwealth, and a draper, who retired to enjoy his wealth at Prestwold. If there are any other descendants out there, I would love to hear from them.
