Hi Cadbury-Bonnington, I was down at the Heritage Quay on Saturday for the 'Old Haunts - The Grounds of Rugby League' event, so I may have seen you there. As David Jenkins (rugby league) was born in 1914 [1], then it would appear you're correct and he's not the son of David Jenkins (rugby, born 1904). It's interesting to learn that he is in fact the son of Richard Jenkins of Hull F.C. (who I assume would have played rugby union (Pontypridd RFC?) in Wales before moving north to play rugby league), though I can't find any reference to Richard Jenkins being at Hull F.C. (I can only find; E. Jenkins, J. Jenkins, and Mick Jenkins), could he have been at Hull Kingston Rovers? The sentence… 'Dai re-commenced Rugger with Treherbert Old Boys…' was added on 22 February 2017 by an anonymous user, it was the automated removal of invisible unicode characters on 23 February 2017 that resulted in the text now appearing in a light-blue box, but sadly I have no references to confirm that the content of the sentence is correct.

- Hi Cadbury-Bonnington, I've modified the Dai Jenkins, Sr. article to alter the "Genealogical information" to a "Note", changing the assertion that Dai Jenkins, Sr. was the father of Dai Jenkins, Jr. to note explaining that he's not the father. Would you be able to find out more about Richard Jenkins' rugby playing career? Keep up the good work. Best regards DynamoDegsy (talk) 10:39, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
- Hi Cadbury-Bonnington, someone named Dai Jenkins played Scrum-half/Halfback for Wakefield Trinity circa-1944 (wartime guest?), could this be David Jenkins? Best regards DynamoDegsy (talk) 13:20, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
