All

I have been researching my Jenkins family 1750 - 1800 Clearwell since 2005

The name is fairly common around the area but I have not been able to tie up some loose ends re the above period.

I have also found a Vaughan-Jenkins from Walcot, Bath, Somerset, Vaughan also being a name associated with the area.

I started exploring the links with the Bath area because a member of my family married at St Pauls & St Peters (Bath Abbey)during the early 1830's.

I do not have any other links to Bath although the dressing stone used for Clearwell church came from the Bath area, my family being stonecutters.

A large number of quarries existed in the Walcot area during the late 1700's and early 1800's. My family can be found in our parish records as Stonecutters in the early 1800's

I do not have any confirmed links to Walcot but am activly conducting research into any possible connection for the Teague Vaughan or Jenkins family especially anything which will link these families and Walcot, Redbrook, Whitecliff, Newland and Clearwell.

I will happily share any information with the group and hope likewise.

Those interested in m resaerch can contact me through my Jenkins family link through this web site

Regards

Tony Jenkins
