hi Russell,

Also 3 'John Jenkin' without the 's'  all born 1829 +/- 2

None are born Aberdare do you have any other info to try narrow?

1841 - there is also a large family of Jenkins with William and Mary as head, all born in county but son John is 9 yrs, maybe too young?  Also address looks like Hirwaun

Do you know when he married and who, may help?

Cas

[welshspencer]

yes he married
Elizabeth Davies on Feb 14th 1862 in llanelli

As far as I am aware that is in Carms.  The family may have connections there, moved back or he moved for work etc, cannot see a John in 1851 that fits born Aberdare.
