James and Mary Ann (Wiseman) Pendroy were married in Harrison County, Indiana on April 27, 1824. (The license was recorded initially on April 24, 1824). The marriage is recorded as no. 926 and performed by Thomas Faith, J.P. When the marriage record was written in ink, the correct surname Pendroy was either mis-spelled as Pend(E)roy, or an inadvertant flourish during a pause in the writing looks like Pend(E)roy, and was typed that way on the typewriter also.
This resulted in some genealogy researchers (erroneously but understandably) entering the incorrect marriage surname Pend(E)roy into some genealogy records, which still wrongly exists in several places in year 2010. This record was also erroneously transcribed in at least one census index as "Penderry" and therefore wrongly exists in some family records as "Penderry".
(Note: While Penderry is an unrelated but existing and valid surname in America, there has not been and there is no living person or existing surname today of PendEroy).
