Life History

Notes

• Harold K Christian, in his Jenkins Family Genealogy (private paper for family), reports the name of this child as Nannie May Jenkins.  She was named after a sister of Julia Virginia of the same name.  The name is also spelled as Nannie in information on the family thought to be from Nannie's mother Jennie Terry Jenkins.
  
  I suspect the middle name is spelled Mae, as Julia Virginia's sister Jeffie Mae.  I have not found a confirmation of the spelling from any first-hand sources.
  
  The Jenkins family had moved back to Marlow from Bradley between the time of Nannie May's birth in October 1905 and her death in September 1906.  Nannie May was buried in Marlow Cemetery.
  
  "Nannie May was born on 29 October 1905, probably following Joseph's move from the farm into town at Bradley.  Apparently Joseph returned with his family to Marlow from Bradley about 1906.  Joseph and Virginia lost their baby daughter Nannie May who died on 23 September 1906.  Nannie was buried in the Marlow cemetery."

  I found Nannie Mae's burial listing in the Marlow Cemetery register.
