Thank you folks. That is good enough to me that David and Mary in 1841 are the parents.

I don't think that is them in the 1851 census with the age difference. I know the 41 is notorious for rounding up but they are 75 in 1841 and only 78 in 1851. There is another David Jenkins married to a Mary in the same village who are shown as 65 in 1841 so am thinking it's more likely to be them.

Argyll Gran .. those were my thoughts as well.

In 1841, Sarah (35) is actually with William and Martha, although transcribed separately on Ancestry.

William and Martha are next door to David , Mary and Owen.

Without any proof, my guess would be that Owen is the son of the unmarried sister-in-law Sarah Jenkins (Martha's sister).

Thank you. There is an Owen Williams who is shown in both families, one in 1841 with David and then in 1851 with William and Martha Richards shown as nephew. Am trying to link through that at the mo.

I'm looking to find the baptism and parents of Martha Jenkins.

My best GUESS is 26 Apr 1795, Llangwm, Pembrokeshire, Wales.
(can't see parents)

Born c1795 in Burton, Pembrokeshire.
Died 30.3.1867, Burton, Pembrokeshire

1851 census - 55 = 1796
1861 census - 67 = 1794
death cert (1867) - 73 = 1794

They live next to/near David and Mary Jenkins but can't find a link.

Sorry to keep asking for help but I've just moved my tree and am going through all my dead ends.
