Hey, List! :-) My Jenkins' migrated from PA to IN sometime in the 1820's. They ended up in Ripley County, IN. My ancestor is : *Cephas JENKINS -- b.14 June 1823, PA ; m. Caroline BRUCE 16 May 1843 Ripley Co., IN ; d. 20 Dec. 1896, IN. I believe his father may have been : Adam JENKINS -- b. c.1800, PA ; m. Jane MCLURE ; to Indiana prior to 1830 (Jefferson Co., IN in 1830 Census Index ; Ripley Co., IN 1840 Census Index). Other Jenkins possibly connected to this "clan" : - John JENKINS -- Jefferson Co., IN census index -- 1830. - Mary Ann JENKINS -- Jefferson Co., IN census index -- 1830. - Jarvis JENKINS, Adam JENKINS, and Thomas JENKINS -- Ripley County, IN original land purchases (1831 - 1837). - Eleazar JENKINS -- m. Eliza Ann LACY 19 Dec. 1847, Ripley County, IN. Hope this matches somebody! Kurt
