Trying to fathom this out, but a bit brain dead!!! Hard day on the golf course!!!

By using the Advance Search and looking for witnesses sometimes helps…..

e.g. At the marriage at St Briavels 4 December 1834 - when Joseph TEAGUE a Widower, married Emma PRIEST, one witness was Maria JENKINS !!!

Again, looking at the witnesses of Thomas JENKINS to Maria PREEST in 1811 - one witness was Philip WILLIS who married Sarah ELSMORE in Newland 18 May 1812 and seemed to have a Son John Elsmore WILLIS christened at Bream 21 March 1813 -
Can see John E WILLIS, in later census' in Wales.

Looking at the 1841 census in Elwall

Absalom JINKINS - 30 - Miner
Mary Ann - 5
Eliza - 2
John ELSMORE - 60 - Ind (Will 15 October 1850 - Sarah WILLIS, his sister, wife of Philip WILLIS)
Sarah - 60
Sarah WILLIS - 58

and various JINKINS below them (Ancestry has transcribed these families in all different way i.e Charles wife is Tompsomes??

The page and a half on this 1841 needs copying out and transcribed properly …

Fod Records, Charles Lewis JENKINS married Temperance ELLAWAY - Hundred of St Briavels - 13 July 1833 - witnesses: William Lewis JENKINS and Wm ELLAWAY)

Absalom + his family, Enos JENKINS and wife Catharine CAVENDER - who married at Hewelsfield - 7 December 1838 - father: James JENKINS, Shoemaker : witnesses: Elam JENKINS and Eliza BEACH and on Public Members Tree - Enos JENKINS died 1870 Pottsville Northwest Ward Schuglkill, Pennsylavania…..

? is Enos, Enon JENKINS - christened 24 May 1818 - parents James (Shoemaker) & Maria

inc: William JINKINS age 73 (Shoemaker) and Catherine 65 - then a family of LEWIS

? Is there any connection between WILLIS/JENKINS/ELSMORE
