This family has a slightly familiar ring to it. I have a very old "family story" dictated by an 97yr old Jenkins. He thought that Thomas Jenkins was our ancestor but I have not found that to be true. I do have a Jesse Jenkins b 1833 Ind, married 1853 Andrew Co, MO to Elizabeth Wilson, who was the daughter of ANDERSON WILSON. However, I have been told that Jesse is buried in Cass Co, NB. I am interested in Jenkins in Andrew County, Mo since that is where my ancestor was married (at least that is what I have been told).
