Sutton, The Mercery of London: Trade, Goods and People, 1130–1578 (Burlington, Vt.: Ashgate Publishing 2005), 557, 330, lists John Penne as one of four wardens of the London Mercers in 1447 and names him among those responsible for appointing ships and protective convoys for the Mercers in the mid 1400s. He appears as early as 1433 in Calendar of the Patent Rolls, Henry VI [note 2], 2:232, which records “John Penne of London, ‘mercer,’ for not appearing before the same [Justices of the Bench] to answer John Greneford touching a plea of trespass. Kent” on 23 January 1432/3."
