  1. 1.  Joseph Jenckes was born Abt 1710; died 25 May 1784, Smithfield, Providence Co., RI.

    Notes:

    I have roughly estimated Joseph's year of birth.

    Joseph & Sarah may have had another son born earlier, who died young (John, s/o Joseph, d. 29 July 1739, Providence).

    Joseph married Sarah King 18 Dec 1735, Providence, RI. Sarah (daughter of John King and Elizabeth Percy) was born Abt 1714, Providence, RI; died Bef 1760. [Group Sheet]

  1. 2.  Susanna Jenckes Descendancy chart to this point (1.Joseph1) was born 6 Jun 1740, Cranston, RI.

    Notes:

  2. 3.  Wait Jenckes Descendancy chart to this point (1.Joseph1) was born 14 Aug 1742, Cranston, RI.

    Notes:

    Although Wait's birth is recorded at Scituate, it says she was born in Cranston.


  3. 4.  Samuel Jenckes Descendancy chart to this point (1.Joseph1) was born 17 Jul 1745, Cranston, RI; died Abt Mar 1813, Scituate, RI.

    Notes:

    Although Samuel's birth is recorded at Scituate, it says he was born in Cranston.

    Samuel's will, dated 23 Jan 1813 at Scituate, RI, mentions his wife Abigail, and the following children: Joseph, Amos, Benjamin, Cyril C., Hannah (Potter), Abigail (Smith), Sarah, & Mary (the last two under 23).

    I would think Samuel must be buried at the Rockland Lot, where his wife and some of his children are buried, along with their spouses. However, I can't find him in the cemetery database. Perhaps his stone is missing. (needs more research)
