I am helping two cousins with their research by using my computer. We have a Theodore Jenkins. Did he have a brother named Levi Walter (or Walter Levi), a sister Mary Ann, and another brother Lonnie (and others we can't find)? At any time were they in the Carolina's? My greatgrandfather was Walter Levi Jenkins born in SC 1855. He lived in Alabama most of his life. His death certificate lists his father as W. J. Jenkins. I don't think it is the same as your William because the death certificate lists W. J.'s place of birth as SC, but was just wondering if maybe a cousin or something. But then, this info was given to the registrar by one of Levi's sons because Alabama didn't have birth certificates at the time of his birth Visit my web page at http://members.aol.com/kkirk6/genealogy.html to see if there might be any connections.
