Hi

Has the parents and family of William Jenkins. in 1881 census who stated he was born in Gwinalen, Cornwall been found conclusively now? I too am looking for the family of him, he was great great grandfather.

Regards

Hi

I know have evidence that the William Jenkins. in 1881 census R G11/5328/114/15 was William Vincent Jenkins who married Mary Jane Lang in 1873. His father was Thomas Jenkins a miner. I have found a census entry in Cornwall RG10/2347/15/21 that's shows a William Jenkins at home aged 17 with a Thomas Jenkins as head. Maybe one and the same?

Hi jere

Computers don't you just love them lol.

I have an update on the census RG10/2347/15/21 in Cornwall I found, it is not our William. I found at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~kayhin/72347.html on page 5 a transcript of that census. That Thomas was a ship carpenter as ours was a miner, that William was in school at 14 as ours could not write.

I also found another possible record which turned out not to be ours either in the  Scilly Isles. Our William is an illusive one lol. I have a bit on Richard Lang but not a lot.

Talk soon

Hiya Bob.
Just had a look at my brother-in-laws file I have nothing on william jenkins only have him in the 1881 1891 1901 census when he was married i remember i drew a blank on him so left the jenkins side be until i could have some more proof . but if you notice the first child born in the 1881 census was called william R maybe after him and mary janes father richard the next son was called george R so maybe william jenkins dad was called george unless you have proof that he was called thomas? as thomas was the next son down to george. i shall have another try and finding him now i think.
  speak to you soon jere.

Hi Jere

William's father was Thomas Jenkins according to Williams marriage certificate, I have tried looking for a census record for him in Cornwall but with no luck. Of course many skipped the census records by being on the move that day, I haven't filled one in since 1981! hahahhahahha.

If I find anything more out I will let you know, maybe you might have more luck than me.

Talk soon
Rob

Hi, sorry to jump on this but with regards to the Lang side of things.. I'm researching my family tree right now and I've come along a Mary Lang born around 1864 her Brother Richard born 1864 and another brother Samuel. Her parents were Richard Lang 1831 and Betsey Lang (Chudley) 1832 and were married on 27/11/1861... It's a shot in the dark but perhaps this is the same Mary? I'm not sure what information you have your end so let me know, Thanks.
