James Jenkins 1784-1862

Posted by Mrs Jackie Walder on Sunday, 26th September 2010, 04:57

I am now trying to find out about my late husband’s 4 x great grandfather – on the 1851 census he is a farmer at Dukes Farm in Rew Street with 3 farm labourers and his wife Kezia Jenkins. I have now received his death certificate saying he died in 1862 at Milthwood/Mithwood, Gurnard.

I am trying to find whereabout this may be. His wife Kezia outlived him, and she died in 1870. Neither of them appear to have been buried in Northwood. Would they have been taken anywhere else do you think and is there a burial place at Gurnard. Maybe there might be someone on here who has heard of this place.

Sorry to be such a pain but I live in Kent and I don’t think I will be able to visit until next year at the moment.

Cheers

Mrs Jackie Walder.

Hello Jackie,
I had been looking for the Yoga class in Northwood and came across your request.

James Jenkins and Kezia Jenkins lived in our house around 1862.

James had two sons and a daughter, James, William, and Mary.

Kezia died 1870, James the son died 1870.

I have a note that Kezia was buried “at Northwood”, however when I contacted Northwood cemetery (Barry S) a couple of years or so ago he could find no record of her burial.

I have further details of the family, addresses etc, if you care to send me a direct e-mail to:
pandora254-temporary@yahoo.co.uk
I will send them to you

Regards
Paul Schofield
