Were they non-conformist? So, perhaps no baptisms.

Dear Osprey,

thank you so much for looking for me.     No I don't think this side of my family were non conformists but very much part of the established church.

I wonder where they went?

I had a look in the surrounding parishes in case they lived on the edge of the parish and nearer to a church in a neighbouring parish and found some Jenkins of Raglan baptising their children in Bryngwyn, but not your family. Then I looked at Llandenny

and found a Thomas and a George in 1776 and 1777 and then no more, so perhaps they moved around.

What you could do is to use the nearby places search on the Genuki page for Raglan and then check the records for each parish if there is a link on Genuki to Mike John's website. You might find some more that way.

Dear Osprey,

Thank you that is so kind of you.   I am looking for a Richard Jenkins c 1776 and died at Tredegar in  1843 who said he was nbc on the 1841 census and am now wondering if that information was incorrect like some others that I have.    Unfortunately he died before 1851 to check so I really do not have much to go on.

The first born son of Richard Jenkins 1776 and Ann nee Moss 1782 Hunslet, Leeds was named George born 1801 and died 1802.   The naming pattern is strong in this family and so I have been looking for a George Jenkins with a possible wife Elizabeth, Sarah or Frances with son Richard c1776.

His grandson Richard Jonathan Jenkins 1840 had 35 acres of land in Raglan before 1871 even though he was a civil engineer  living in London.    This was the clue that set me looking in the Raglan Area.

I will have a look at the genuki site and see what I can find.   George Jenkins and Elizabeth nee Powell seem to have moved as you say.

thank you again
Diana
