Hello Billy, Good to see that you are still looking for Scot Jenkins. I have not gotten anywhere with my James Jenkins b. 1828 m. Helen (Ellen) Sharp b. 1828 both in Scotland. Son John b. March 5, 1848, Scotland. They came to America in 1856 and settled in PA. Have obtained an immigration document from Philadelphia of a James Jenkins from Ireland in 1856. Could they have come to America via Ireland? I have never been able to get a document of the 1848 marriage at New Monkland, Lanarkshire, Scotland. Any suggestions? Note: I now know that James Jenkins and family are buried at the Old Monongahela Cemetery, Monongahela, Washington Co., PA. Is there anyone on the list who have Jenkins' buried there?

I would be interested to read any articles/stories regarding these families and emigration, as i realise the majority of list subscribers are in North America. : : Regards : Billy Jenkins : Scotland : :
