Hi everyone! I am one of the Jenkins clan too and I'm stuck. I am looking
for a Thomas Jenkins, born around 1821 somewhere in Virginia. Came to
Mississippi (possibly by way of Georgia), married around 1850 and settled in
Attala County, Mississippi. Listed on 1860 census with wife Rachel (Box)
Jenkins and five children. 1870 census shows wife and six children (last one
born in 1864) but Thomas is not there (civil war casualty maybe?). Can't
find a military record and no other information about prior generations is
known. Six children were: John Wesley (b. 1851), Robert P (b. 1852) .,
James M. (b. 1854) , Henry Richard (b. 1856) , Mary Frances (b. 1860)
(married into a McGary family) and Martha L. ( b. 1864) (married into a
Stewart family). Male children remained in Mississippi (Choctaw and
Webster counties) except for Henry Richard who seems to have disappeared.
Martha remained in Mississippi while Mary Frances eventually settled in Heber
Springs, Arkansas. Any help would be greatly appreciated and I will gladly
share any Jenkins info I have gathered along the way.

I am not a Jenkins descendant - my interest in family is in sorting out the children of
my ancestor Moses Vincent Ashworth whose second wife was Elizabeth Davis Jenkins,
widow of Joseph Jenkins who d. about 1815 in Smith Co. TN. Moses' first wife, Jincey
Muse, was mother of my ancestor Thomas Vincent Muse b. 1812 - am trying to figure
out 1820 & 1830 census records and see if there were other children from the marriage.
This isn't line I have done much work on, but have found the following which
may be of help to another Jenkins researcher:
Smith Co. TN records (May term 1815) show that Eliza H. Jenkins appointed
adm'x of estate of Joseph Jenkins, entered bond with WM. MORES, JAMES JENKINS
& Wm. SMITH. Inventory of Joseph Jenkins taken included 136 acres of land on
Mulherrin Creek and misc. items.
1816 - Eliza Jenkins, as adm'x of Joseph Jenkins, purchased from Smith BELOTE
59 acres on Mulherrin Creek. Same info is in deed registered 10 Dec 1817 of
Smith Belote to JOHN D. JENKINS, heir of Joseph. Am a bit confused by the
latter deed since records show John D. Jenkins was still minor in 1818....
1818 - Smith Co. Court Minutes - Motion of Eliza Ashworth, formerly Eliza
Jenkins, ordered that jury lay off and set apart dower of Eliza, widow of
Joseph Jenkins. Nov court minutes - Moses Ashworth appointed guardian of
JOHN D. JENKINS, minor.
In 1829, Moses moved his family to Posey Co. - don't know if John D. Jenkins
also moved to IN. One curious note, Moses & Elizabeth had a son born 1829
and named him Joseph Jenkins Ashworth....
Hope this info may be of help to someone... If you come across anyone
researching John D. Jenkins in TN or KY, would love to have birth year for
him....

my Jenkins family stops with "Tony" Jenkins, my great grandfather. any of

My grandmother (his daughter-in-law) says that the only thing we know about
him is that he was found as a stowaway teenager aboard a cargo ship in
Mobile, AL. Whether this is true, I don't know. He claimed to have family
in Cuba, AL. My father and grandfather, Ralph Jenkins and William Tony

So far my jenkins line includes:
Charles Ross Jenkins, b. Bristol England 6/18/1886; d. McMurray, WA
7/12/1919. Mother's maiden name: Miller.
Believe came to West Coast in late 1800s, early 1900s, settling in Skagit
Valley, Washington. At time of death was head fireman for ATlas Lumber Co.
mill at Lake McMurray, Washington. Killed (on the job( instantly when a
discharge valve exploded, forcing a pipe to projectile into his temple. Was
survived by wife, Pearl Josephine (LaFlamme) Jenkins and six children, to
wit: Freida W., born 3/15/1911; Gordon Charles, born 5/11/13; Wilfred A.
(Bud) [dob unknown]; Dorothy Marguerite, b. 11/12/15; Thomas Raymond, b.
11/25/16; Viola May, b. 5/1/19; and Earl Richard (born after his death on
2/8/20). Of these children, Freida may have had one child before dying at a
young age in Montana; Gordon had 6 children (and 25+ grandchildren; plus
numerous great grandchildren), and died in 1989; Dorothy had three children;
Thomas no children; Viola had 3 children; and Earl had no children.
Alan Jenkins, who on 7/30/1913 lived at 14 Lilymead A. Knowle Bristol,
brother of Charles Ross Jenkins. "Mab" Jenkins is either the wife Alan
Jenkins or sister of Alan and Charles Jenkins. Unknown if there were any
other brothers/sisters or if Alan Jenkins had any children.
Gordon Jenkins known to say "Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines"....[the one
who fed his horse on corn and beans] was his grandfather or great
grandfather, or something like that. Unknown if true.
Because of the untimely death of Charles, and with my father being of such a
young age when he died, we know little to nothing about the Jenkins line and
would like to find out more.

My Jenkins line goes back to Thomas Jenkins born in Tynant, Llangwyryfon,
Cardiganshire, Wales. He owned an 80 acre farm called Gilfachgoed, TyNant.
His wife, Elizabeth Jones was born in Llanilar. They married 6-2-1813 in St.
Ursula parish and had 3 children:(1)David b. 7-4-1816 married Catherine
Davies, (2) Ann married Evan Isaac, (3) Catherine -never married.
Ann and Evan had one daughter named Jane.
David emigrated to Pittsburgh, Pa. in 1837. He and Catherine had 6 children.
Catherine and 3 of the children died during the Black Plague. David brought
the other 3 children down the Ohio River on a raft with another group of
Welshmen, and settled in Gallia County, Ohio. He married Jane Hughes in
Perry Township, Ohio and had 6 children (1 died at birth)
Children of David and Catherine: Abraham, Elizabeth, Margaret
Children of David and Jane Hughes: Mary Jane, Ann, Esther, Gomer T.
Most of the descendants of these children, including myself still live in
Ohio, although some live in Virginia and West Virginia. Abraham was my great
grandfather.
Most of my research right now is centered on tracing back beyond Thomas
Jenkins in Wales.

My Jenkins have been hard to trace. I had a John and Sophia Jenkins in the
Town of Monroe in the 1840 US Census for New York. The father was not listed
in the 1850 US Census for New York, but I did find the wife Sophia and her
children. I am not sure yet, but I think this Jenkins family may have been
related to the Connecticut man, John Jenkins, who worked for the Susuquehanna
Company and tried to settle the Wyoming Valley area in Pennsylvania in the
late 1700s. When the Indians drove out the settlers, some of the Jenkins clan
retreated into Orange County, New York. So this is my general area and time
frame. Hope others have found more than I did. Thanks again for sharing.

1829 to 1840 according to birth information of one of their children and 1830

any siblings; I do not know Rachel's date of birth, though her husband
Phillip was born in 1799 and in the census data she is in the 10 year range
younger than him - that is she could be born anywhere from the latter half
of1800 up to the first half of 1810 to show such in the census; I don't even
know for sure where/when Rachel died: one of her children's obits said she
died when he was about 3 - that would have been 1839, but she seems to still
be in the 1840 census; she is mentioned in one obit as dying in Hendricks Co,

After replying to your original letter, I have talked with my father. He wasn't
sure about dates, but here it goes:
William "Willie" George Jenkins, born in Stone Co. Mississippi about 1884 or 85.
His father "Tony" Jenkins was found as a runaway on a boat in Mobile, AL. The man
who foundhim, took him back to Mississippi where he married Missouri Davis. He was
killed at the age of 28 in a logging accident, so we estimate that he was born during
the Civil War. Apparently asister from Cuba, AL with the last name of Snellgrove
came to visit him in Mississippi. We do not know if she was a half sister, or if
Snellgrove was her married name. This is all that is known about "Tony" Jenkins.
Thanks, Jennie Jenkins

E. E. Jenkins married Mary Cox. They had a daughter Susan Emiline Jenkins.
I do not know where E.E. Jenkins was born, or when, but I believe both him and Mary
were bornaround 1820-1830. Mary Cox was born in Indiana.
At some time they went to Oregon where Susan married Eugene E. Price. They had a son
Joseph Emanuel Price b. 6-12-1872 in Tillamook, OR.
I'm guessing that E.E. Jenkins name may have been Emanuel. Here's why, I do knew that
Joseph Price's paternal grandfather was named Joseph, maybe he was named after both
grandfathers?
I don't know when they went to Oregon, or if Susan had any brothers and sisters.
I don't know much do I? Actually my father has more information but neither one of us
canaccess it until late spring or early summer. Until then I'm taking shots in the dark.
I appreciate your time and effort.
thanks,

Okay. My information. I don't have a lot, but what I do have is detailed. My mother's
maiden name was Dianna Lynn Jenkins. She has two brothers and a sister, Judith Ann,
John Joseph, and Martin David. Mom and Uncle Marty were born in Baltimore, MD. Aunt
Judy and Uncle John were born in Norton, VA. My grandfather, their father, is James
Vernard Jenkins, b. Oct. 11, 1925 in Norton, VA. He has 5 brothers and 1 sister,
Norris, Henry, Paul, Silas, Arthur, andNina. (That is not their birth order, but I
really don't know what is.) They are the children ofJoseph Jenkins and Margaret
Mossella Osbourne. All I know about my great-grandfather is thathe was adopted as a
child. Since even he didn't know who his birth parents were, I have decided to trace
his adoptive family. I do have some other information, such as birth dates, nicknames
(none of them were ever called by their real names) and marriages, but I'm not sure
if you need that, so I won't include it unless you ask for it. Hope I helped.

I've gotten back as far as my Great-Great Grandfather Cornelius Jenkins. He was born
in VA, as was his Father and Mother, (County unknown) on 15 March, 1806. I think there
may have been a brother Otho W. Jenkins, born in 1805 in VA, but haven't been able to
prove it yet. Cornelius married Elizabeth Carey on 02 July, 1829 in Fairfield County OH,
but I don't know when he moved there. In 1838 he showed up in Martinsville, IL as he
had started a blacksmith shop there. Cornelius died on 31 August, 1882 (Location unknown)
and is buried in the Martinsville City Cemetery. His wife Elizabeth died in Martinsville
IL on 20 March, 1880 and is also buried in the Martinsville City Cemetery. Their children
were as follows:

My Jenkinses so far:
John Leonard (Lee) b. Texas, 1867 (son of Wm. and Mary, no dates) m. Mary Hazel (that's
her last name) in Gainesville, TX 1889. Five sons: (John) Leonard, b 1891, Seth Thomas,
b 1893, (James) Claude, b. 1895, (William) Lee, b. 1899, Clarence, b. 1901 -- all in
Indian Territory, near Erin Springs, Chickasaw Nation.
So I'm looking for descendants of any of the sons. My grandfather was Seth Thomas.
Also, I hope to move in the ancestral direction if I can, looking for William and Mary,
and seeing if I canfind any more of John Leonard (Lee) Jenkins's siblings. My query is --
can anyone tie their Jenkinses in Texas into mine?

Anne Jenkins's Grandfather, Hugh Jenkins, came to NC from VA about 1750. He settled
in what is now Gaston Co. NC. He was here with a bunch of other Jenkins that we think
were his brothers. If you can help prove or disprove this it would be appreciated.
These others are: Jesse, Edward, Ruben, Capt. John, Elijah and one with the unlikely
name of Jenkins Jenkins. I have information on all these but am unable to prove that
they were brothers. All seem to have come to NC from VA sometime in the 1700's. Most
came first to Rowan Co., then moved to Lincoln Co. which is now Gaston Co. Any help
