Had a look at that 1891 census posted

I think that the daughter Mary Ellen is shown as Dixon on the image


Births Dec 1889 (>99%)

Many thanks for this other information, Albert Jenkins is certainly buried with son Philip, and a daughter in Burnley.

Thank you

Sorry, i mean't Albert's son was Mark Philip Jenkins b 1894, so this Philip you have found buried could be another relative.
Thank you.

Just found the father of Albert Thomas Jenkins on a marriage record of Albert's

lancashireAnn

lancashireAnn Report 8 Oct 2011 14:23

on ancestry there is an Albert Thos Jenkin (no s) living in Cornwall with father Philip

this is probably your Albert but I do not have access to view. Please could someone do the lookup

yes - on the marriage to Elizabeth printed on page 1 Albert's father is Philip

Great !!

Thank you so much for finding this information for Albert's parents, it is very kind of you, did you find this on Ancestry, ?
I am still confused, as i have Albert Thomas Jenkins b in Burnley Lancs,
Do you think Ancestry may have made a mistake with his birth place

I must admit though that when i search for Albert with his parents nothing comes up in Lancashire,

I am so grateful to you thank you for all the searches you ave done

I haven't been able to find this census that you found on Ancestry,

lancashireAnn Report 8 Oct 2011 16:29

Albert seems to vary his place of birth depending on who else was in the household. I would guess that somewhere in Cornwall is the best bet.

1881 with brother so Cornwall

1891 - wife born Bradford so Bradford

1901 living in Burnley so Burnley

Goodness me , his birth certainly is in a few places.

Yes, i think you are right Ann, it does look like he was born in Cornwall. I certainly haven't found him with parents in Lancashire, and your information has convinced me that he was from Cornwall

I am so grateful Ann, as i wouldn't have found Albert with his parents. Thank you so much for all your hard work and for your time

You are welcome. So the dubious Cornwall Thomas looks to be right after all!
