_Penkenol_ (Vol. v., p. 490.).--Head of a family or tribe, from the Celtic:

see _penkenedl_, Welsh; _ceanncinnidh_, or _cineal_, Gaelic; of which

_ken-kenal_ is a Lowland corruption. The inference drawn from the three

crescents (borne as a difference) almost explains the meaning of the word.

Aubrey was a Welshman.
