Lydia Squires may be the sister of William, who you say married Elizabeth. Baker St. Cemetery, Schroon, Essex Co, NY, "Jenks, Norman; Wife - Avis Luther Phelps, Son of Edmund and Sally Richardson Jenks. b. 1814, d. 8-1-1891, age 77." I don't have anything futher on descendants, but some of this may help point you in the right direction. I have not found any marriage records in the area, so that will probably require the use of death certificates to establish. ---------------------------------------------- Re: Jenks Author: Katherine Noyes Date: 5 Nov 2004 Thank you for the prompt reply. I checked the census and it has Elizabeth the wife of William Squire she was born about 1811 and died in Essex Co. N.Y. according to the info I have.
