Hampshire & IOW Lookup Requests / Re: Looking for Marriage Details - Parish of Porstea
« on: Wednesday 28 August 19 10:57 BST (UK)  »
Thanks so much DJ

I think I'm down a rabbit hole and second guessing myself.

Henry seems to Marry Ann West in 1825 (witnessed by Thomas Jenkins, presumably a brother?), is registered on the Census as still living with her in 1841, marries Elizabeth Harding in 1842, and dies 5 years later.

I'm assuming; the father of John Jenkins (Henry Jenkins) and the Henry Arthur Jenkins who marries Elizabeth Harding in 1842 are two different Henrys?? But perhaps they just seem to both conveniently be from Alverstoke.

Thanks so much for your info and help!

Hi all,

I appreciate this is a very old chat, but I wanted to just say thank you for all of the help you've put in here.

The John Jenkins in this thread is my 4th Great Grandfather (John > Henry > Albert E > my Grandfather, Charles), and I found the exchange of your messages whilst looking for the exact information you were helping to decipher - John's father's name.

I felt compelled to just say a quick thanks, as I have found the community regarding ancestral research to be very welcoming and willing to help.

Now I just need to find Henry's father's name!
