I an searching for Edward Lentz who was born in Johnson County,IA. He was living with his parents, Enos and Nancy Jane Lentz, and siblings in Penn, Johnson County in 1880 when he was 17 years old.I can't find Penn on a map of Johnson County. Is it a ghost town? By 1920 Edward was living in Emmet County, Iowa with his third wife, Flossie,and two daughters, Pansy and Addie. He had 12 or more brothers and sisters; one of whom, John Riley Lentz, died 13 Sep 1936 in North Liberty,Johnson Co. John's obituary might provide a clue as to where Edward was living in 1936.I will appreciate any helpful information.
