Jake Melvin Jenkins b. 1898 (Tennessee ?)
I am looking for any information on my Jenkins family.My great-grandfather was Jake Melvin Jenkins.He married Lily Mae Cate.He was born on June 22, 1898 and died on March 27, 1960.Jake and Lily had 7 children (James, Flora Mae, Calvin, Eugene, Authur Lee, Virginia and Melvin).Melvin is my grandfather and he married Evelyn Jane Clemons.Lily is buried in Harriman, Tennessee and Jake is buried in Knoxville, Tennessee at Edgewood Cemetery.I seem to have hit a brick wall in my research as I was told that Jake's father was adopted.If you have any information on this line of Jenkins, I would appreciate your help tremendously.
