son or daughter?

See the Journals of the House of Lords, Volume 50 (1814); they specifically ask a witness what the second child's sex was and are told it is a girl. Brianyoumans (talk) 05:27, 19 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Thomas Jenkins

edit

I believe that the Thomas Jenkins who Catherine may have married, the army officer who was an early patron of the Countess of Blessingham, is also Thomas Jenkins the grand-nephew, godson, and heir of Thomas Jenkins (antiquary). They are both reported to have died in 1837, and Thomas Jenkins (antiquary) owned the manor of Sidmouth and handed it on to his grand-nephew Thomas Jenkins, and through him it passed to Edward Hughes Ball Hughes, the Baroness' brother - which would make sense if they were brothers-in-law. Frustratingly, I haven't been able to come up with any definitive proof that the two Thomas Jenkinses are the same.Brianyoumans (talk) 23:56, 19 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
