Mike Kearney,

I don't have anything on your Enoch, but I do have a William Harris JENKINS
born circa 1788 at Fairfax or Loudoun, VA who named his fifth son Enoch H.
"Doc" JENKINS. This Enoch was born 02 Apr 1821 at Fairfax, VA.

William H. Jenkins' married Tabitha Hughley and their other children were
named: (1) George William, (2) Lewis, (3) Martha Jane, (4) William H., Jr.,
(5) Washington, (7) Samuel, (8) Nancy Ann, (9) Henry Thomas, (10) Charles
Tyler and (11) Catherine Jemima JENKINS.

Between the time son Enoch was born (Apr 1821) and the time son Samuel was
born (Sep 1841), the family moved to Wilson Co., TN. Samuel and thereafter
all born in Wilson Co., TN. Enoch and before all born in VA.

Does your Enoch have a brother named William H. JENKINS? How about a
brother named Charles T. JENKINS. I believe my William Harris JENKINS had a
brother named Charles Tyler JENKINS (born abt 1813 in VA) who also came to
Wilson Co. TN.
