Thanks for the info Mary McCormick nee Penk is my great grandmother and David Penk my great great grandfather (b 1821) but because the 1841 census for Wrexham is lost I thought someone would have more info on the Penk family that I do not have. What info do you want for Edwards as that is my mother's maiden name also part of the Penk family tree?
