  TRANSCRIPTION OF THE FAMILY BIBLE OF WILLIAM JENKINS: This Bible is in the possesion of William’s ggg-grandson David Banks. (Spelling from the Bible is used) William Jenkin was born June the 25th 1808 Mahala(possibly Malinda) Jenkin was born October 12 1812 William and Mahala Jenkin was marred July 19 1835 ______ Jenkin was born ___ 13th 1836 (looks like Martha) Mary Ann Jenkin was born ___ 4 1838 ______ Jenkin was born ___ 29 1840 Next Page - Evaline Jenkin was born January 4th 1842 Sarahan Jenkin was born November the 17th 1846 James Jenkins was born Sept 14th 1850 TRANSCRIPTION FROM REV. BOGART’S MARRIAGE BOOK: Jenkins, Wm. Eatherton, Nancy 1-19-1845 TRANSCRIPTION OF THE SEVIER COUNTY 1850 CENSUS: 123 JENKINS William 41 Farmer TN 123 JENKINS Nancy 33 123 JENKINS Mary 12 123 JENKINS Louisa 10 123 JENKINS Evaline 8 123 JENKINS Jane 1 123 JENKINS Hannah 69 NOTES by Laura Clinton Vasut, November 2002: It appears that Mahala died sometime after Evaline’s birth in 1842 and William remarried Nancy Etherton in 1845. The first child listed in the Bible, possibly Martha but hard to read, is not listed in this household. Mary, Louisa, and Evaline probably all belong to Mahala and the last child Jane probably belongs to Nancy. It is likely that Hannah is the mother of William. Mary Ann Jenkins married Wesley Bodine around 1855 and was widowed. She married my gg-grandfather Calvin Clinton on September 4, 1859. Mary died January 11, 1905 and she is buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery beside Calvin. http://www.sevierlibrary.org/genealogy/bible/jenkins.htm
