Is this the family you're looking at?

1881 Pencarreg, Egremont, Carms RG11/5403 folio 61 pg 2
Hanah Jenkins head widow 37 staymaker b. Pembs, Mynachlogddu
Thomas son 11 b. Egremont
William son 9 b. Pembs, Llandissilio
Phebe dau 7 b. Pembs, Llawhaden
Edward son 7 months b. Egremont

1871 Brynbank, Egremont RG10/5506 folio 4 pg 3
Hannah Jenkins head mar 26 b. Pembs, Mynachlogddu
Thomas son 2 months b. Egremont

Several possibles registered Narberth for William's birth, so it might be easier to get a brith cert for one of the siblings
Thomas Jenkins march qtr 1871 Narberth vol 11a pg 776
Phebe Jenkins dec qtr 1874 Narberth vol 11a pg 889
Edward Jenkins sept qtr 1880 Narberth vol 11a pg 826

There is a possible marriage registered in the right area
Morris Jenkins dec qtr 1870 Narberth vol 11a pg 1275 with Hannah Edwards on the same page

1871 census has a possible Hannah Edwards aged 19 b. Mynachlogddu working as a servant in Llangolman RG9/4147 folio 3 pg 1

Do you have William's marriage cert for details of his father?

Many thanks for this osprey,  I am hoping to get a marriage certificate tomorrow. Will let you know, what is interesting is that William named a daughter Phebe so this could have been because of his sister Phebe.

Managed to trace marriage certificate of William and Ann 26/11/1892  and Morris Jenkins farmer is listed as father deceased.
William is 21 so born 1871/72

Well, that fits in with the marriage registered Narberth I posted above. As I said in that post, too many possible William Jenkins registered to be sure, so a birth cert for one of the siblings would be the way to go. It also makes the William I found in 1901 with son Morris a possible (on Glamorgan post).

There's a possible death reg for Morris which throws doubt on the parentage of Edward registered 1880
Morris Jenkins 26 june qtr 1878 Narberth vol 11a pg 513

His age ties in with this entry from 1871 census
Great Vaynor, Llawhaden  RG10/5509 folio 53 pg 1
Morris Jenkins mar 19 ag servant b. Llawhaden
in the household of William Pitt Currie, farmer of 330 acres

1861 Rydyveynig(?), Llawhaden RG9/4150 folio 63 pg 6
William Edwards head mar 50 blacksmith b. Llawhaden
Phebe wife 49 b. Whitechurch
William son 13 b. Narberth
Mary dau 11 b. Llawhaden
Morris son 9 b. Llawhaden
Simon son 7 b. Llawhaden
Catherine dau 5 b. Llawhaden
Frances dau 2 b. Llawhaden

The description of the enumeration district for the 1861 census says the area is "the east side of the river leading from Canaston Bridge to Egremont Bridge", so not too far from Egremont.
