    "I have traced my family's origins to Shropshire, England to my ancestor John Jenkins, 1656-1717, married to Martha Garner, 1656-1752.  They settled in Westmoreland County, Virginia. ... They had two sons, Ezekiel Jenkins, 1695-1750, & William Jenkins, 1704-1747.  William Jenkins had one son, William Jenkins - 1740-1787, had 4 sons, one of which was James Randolph Jenkins, 1760-1824, who was born in Fairfax County, Va., & had 19 children, one of which was Samuel M. Jenkins, 1789-1872 ... the first of this set of Jenkinses to be born in Union County, South Carolina."

    Another transcription of this marriage record with more information informs us that Martha's last name wsa Eskridge.  This may mean that this was s different Rust married to a Martha, or it may mean Martha Garner was married to an Eskridge before marrying Sam Rusk, making two marriages before she married John Jenkins.  But it seems from other records that she married Rust after John's death.
