Welcome to 7th grade medieval history class. I love teaching medieval history because of my ancestry. My maiden name was Pennington. We have traced our family history back to Muncaster Castle in the Northwest Lake District in Cumbria, England. Some of the owls used in the Harry Potter movie were from Muncaster Castle. I will put a link on this page for you to visit the castle. On my mothers side of the family , we have traced our ancestry to Duart Castle on the Isle of Mull. Check out the link for this castle to hear about a sad tale of love gone wrong! Both castles are big tourist attractions now! When we study medieval history in Europe, we will trace your ancestry to see what your family shield looks like! Please think of this class as a trip back in time!
