I am descended thru his son Benjamin and then thru son Jesse Jenkins. I would love to get more information too.

In 1796, he married Eliz. Meyers in Clark Co., KY, which is adjacent to Montgomery. He moved to Putnam Co., IN 1827 with some of his sons and he died there in 1862. I can't seem to get farther back from him. If anyone has information on these Jenkinses, would appreciate hearing. > > Thank you, > John O'Neal
