William married Sarah (last name unk)dob about 1782 in VA. I have them listed in TN as early as 1810, and although STB they had many children, I only show Joanah,William B. and Joseph-- This info that I have goes on to indicate that William B. JENKINS was born abt 1812 and married Elizabeth HOBBS 27 Aug 1835 Wilson Co TN--Show them with children Susan, James L.,William C.John Bill,and Sarah E.---- (This info sent to me from a helpful JENKINS researcher , who got it from the Smith County History Book "JENKINS FAMILY" F 446. I am attempting to connect it to my JENKINS/JINKINS lineage (also in Smith /Dekalb Co TN)(Joanah JENKINS/JINKINS was my grgrgrandmother)--I have some other documented connections--but there are two (pretty distinct) JENKINS families in Smith Co TN in the era immediatly preceeding and after 1800.It is confusing and therefore any(ANY) assistance that you could offer would help to sort out these families. I will exchange /discuss any info that I have. You can email me directly. [email protected]
