I do have a Draper Jenkins b. 1904 d. 2000 married Maude A. Williams b. 1905 d. 1989. They had two children that I know of. Joanne married Ernest Cotton and Bobbye Jane married Ray Phillips. I think but have not proven that this Draper Jenkins is son of John Crittendon Jenkins 1882-1960 & Minnie B. Boston 1887-1975. They had a son Draper born ca 1905. siblings Daisey, Era, Charlie, & Odell. I don't know the parents of Minnie B. Boston. John Crittendon Jenkins parents were Leonidas Jenkins, Sr. 1845-1931& (another) Martha Elizabeth Jenkins b. ca 1853-1926. This Martha Elizabeth Jenkins was daughter of Coleman Jenkins and she was married twice, both times to cousins. Married First to James Jenkins son of Nicholas Jenkins & Susan Boston. Martha and James divorced and then Martha married Leonidas Jenkins. Leonidas was son of Jefferson Jenkins and Martha Parkhurst. So if this Draper was your Martha Elizabeth's nephew it could have been from the Boston side of the family since I don't know who Minnie B. Boston's parents were? Mary Knight It is very possible as I have been told of a Boston connection. My mothers double cousin told me he knew of a Draper Jenkins who was Martha Elizabeth's nephew which I am assuming would be her brothers son, do you know if any of them had a son named Draper? Also in the 1900 Smith co census it lists George R. Silcox age 38 with wife Martha (Jenkins) as age 43 which would put her birth year as 1857, also the names of many of their children are commonly used in the Samuel Jenkins line, such as George, Nancy, Reuban Andrew, Bettie ect...
