Here is some information I would like to share with the Jenkins out there: I found out some interesting information awhile ago. There were two different groups of Jenkins that came into the Ulster County, New York area about the same time and they are not related, so they say. One group came from New England and they were Quakers. The other came from New Jersey and they were Dutch Reformed (my Jenkins line I have been told). William Jenkins (my line) brother, James founder of Jenkinstown (now New Platz), Ulster County, New York owned and operated a sawmill there. He married Rachel LeFevre there in 1818. I thought that was some interesting news. Another bit of information. The Ulster County, New York Jenkins began a mass migration from there to Michigan in the early 1800's. Several families, as they passed through Ohio, decided to settle in Erie County, Ohio. That is where my Ohio Jenkins line begins. Tom Jenkins from Texas tjenkins@ghg.net
