Corfe Castle area look up please c1780
« on: Monday 25 February 08 09:54 GMT (UK) »

Could anyone look for a baptism of William Jenkins.? On his marriage license (1807) in Bedminster, Somerset, he gives his birthplace as Corfe Castle, Dorset.  He was said to be 56 when he died in 1831 so allowing for error he would probably have been born in the 1770s-early 1780s.  May have been baptised or lived in a neighbouring Dorset parish.
I'm trying to find his parents/family. Any help gratefully received.

I have a secret weapon. :-)

Some time ago I collected into a spreadsheet all baptisms, marriages and deaths within 5 miles of Corfe Castle. I have LOTS of rellies from there.

A little more:

Jenkins burials during the period the family were being 'productive':

Corfe Castle   1779   24-AUG; William son of Henry & Ann Jenkins
Corfe Castle   1781   23-JAN; Henry Jenkins
Corfe Castle   1790   05-SEP; Betty daughter of Henry & Ann Jenkins
Corfe Castle   1793   18-APR; George son of Henry & Ann Jenkins
Corfe Castle   1803   23-DEC; Mary Jenkins

Explains the two George's.

Betty is a probable. Your decision on the others.

I'll leave you alone now. :-)
