Public Domain Source[edit]

Much of this text, comprising the career section came from the book Monarch's of Minstrelsy which was published in 1911. Since the text is public domain, I adapted it for the article. I am crediting the original author Edward Le Roy Rice for writing the original text.Jacqke (talk) 18:49, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Problem identifying middle name[edit]

Two different family members gave two different middle names for William A. Penno. On his death certificate, a niece gave the name William Albert Penno.^[1] The year after he died, his ex-wife's cousin published a genealogy book, naming him William Augustus Penno.^[2]Jacqke (talk) 19:07, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Confusion with his father[edit]

I removed a paragraph about military service during the Civil War from August 5 1862 to March 2, 1863, serving with the Fifth Regiment of Rhode Island Heavy Artillery. That was his father and is labeled on his father's gravestone.^[1]^[2]
