Family of Henry William FORD and Anna Kate JENKINS
Henry William FORD b. 1853 Jun5216 at Wisconsin1744.
Anna Kate JENKINS b. 1857~5217 at New York5217.
Married5223 1875 Jun 305223 at Henry Co., MO5223. William Henry Ford and Annie Kate Jenkins were married5223 in Henry Co., Missouri.
In the 1900 census5216, Henry and Anna Ford are listed as married 25 years.
Though the record of his marriage to Annie Kate Jenkins lists his name as William Henry Ford, he appears in most other records as Henry or Henry W Ford.
Henry appears in the 18601744 and 18705217 censuses in the household of William and Lucretia Ford. He is also mentioned in his mother's obituary5214; Lucretia Ford died "at the home of her son, H. W. Ford, in Homestead township."
Several census records list Anna's birthplace as New York, and the birthplace of both her parents as Wales. Also, Anna is listed in several records as Anna K and Annie K. Further, the 1870 census5217 for White Oak Township, Missouri, lists the family of John and Catharine Jenkins, and, among several children in the household, Anna K, age 13, born New York. Though circumstantial, it appears to be highly probable that the Annie K Jenkins who married William Henry Ford in 1875, in Henry Co., MO, is the daughter of John and Catharine Jenkins.
The 1870 census5217 for the family of John and Catherine Jenkins, in addition to Anna K, lists a child Meredith Jenkins (male), age 17, born in New York. The death certificate5224 for Meredith Edward Jenkins, born May 20, 1853, in New York, lists his parents as John Jenkins, born Wales, and Catherine Pugh, born Wales. It is assumed that Meredith is Anna's brother, and John and Catherine (Pugh) Jenkins are their parents.
