See what you think about this, Llewellyn W. Jenkins b: 1770/75 in Wales, m: Patience Joscelyn, b: 1775 Dutchess, Co. NY d: 1855 Andes, Dela. Co. NY. They had 10 children, 7 child was a son John b: 1820 , 9 child was dau. Phebe b: 1825/27. I have no further info on either of them other than abstract of Llewellyn W.'s will in which are mentioned. If you would like contact ms. Charlotte LaGurardia, PoBox 563, Cobleskill, NY, 12043- 0563, by snail mail she is working that line. Good luck Paul in Fl., 57 yrs upstate NY.
