21. Elizabeth Rogers

Susan Clark writes: I have corresponded with Wilmer Kerns via email and we
have discussed the Jenkins & Pugh families. His book is pretty good, but has a few mistakes in it. He used Quaker records, land and probate records,
but also used info from people who descend from the settlers of Back
Creek. He told me the birthdate he had for Jacob JENKINS was an
estimated date, not factual. I asked him how he knew that the wife
of Jacob was Elizabeth ROGERS since there is no record of their
marriage. He said by looking at the records that do exist, it can be
presumed that Rogers was her maiden name, and also it was an established
fact in that area of Back Creek that she married Jacob Jenkins (meaning that
the information had been passed down in the family.)

22. George Kinsey

went to Ohio in 1798 (Mt Pleasant), then abt 1815 Charles Kinsey located in the
western part of Cadiz tp, Harrison Cnty

MARRIAGE: probably the place was Buckingham PA [James D. Kinsey]

23. Mary Gillingham

or 1754.

24. Nathan Smith

[better info from Clarance Maris Smith put me on track with his identity]
Nathan served in fore part of Revol War (article on son Augustus in Erie Hist) Nathan (as oldest son) succeeded to the homestead of father Caleb, blt home in 1799 which (says JC Williams) was at that day one of the town's best.

26. Gilbert Palmer

Nine Partners, p642.

JC Williams has that Gilbert had 18 chdrn, 9 by each wife. But will names 17.
but JCW is wrong that his father is Abraham Palmer.
Nine Partners Quarterly Mtg was organized 1783. But NP meeting records has

Could his marriage to Mary Sherman have been recorded in Putnam Cnty, too?

DEATH: Will is dated 20 Jun 1805, probated 14 Jun 1806. Vol 5, p 105-9,
Rutland Co. [my source HWP, vol 1 p 143.

Clarance Smith believes the Sherman geneology tracing Mary's line all the way
back to Phillip Sherman of Rhode Island.

!MARRIAGE: also given as 20 Feb 1778 in Roy V Palmer (1968) book. p295.
