In reply to:
Absalom Dunn & Nancey Jenkinsl
Kenneth R. Dunn 1/19/03
Married in Halifax Co not Essex Co, Va:
Nancy Jinkins (Jenkins), d/o Robert Jinkins who consents, m. Absalom Dunn 15 Oct/married 17 Oct by Rev Thomas Dobson. Sur: Gentry Jinkins. Wit: H.F. Clark (1:42)
Rev Thomas Dobson (d 1816), a native of Essex Co, Va, planted and was pastor/Elder of the Hunting Creek Baptist Church in north-eastern Halifax Co, Va. This tells you the vicinity in which they lived.
Robert Jenkins may also be the father of Gentry Jenkins, the surety above.
Nancy's sister Jinsey Jenkins, also d/o Robert Jenkins, married Benjamin Dunn 20 Jan 1801 (1:45).
Benjamin Dunn and Absalom Dunn were likely brothers.
Late reply but hope this helps.
If I find any children, I will post them here.
