Great Great Great Grandmother.

Here is a piece of history.
Elizabeth Jenkins was born in 1793.
in 1818 she married Barnard Pender a farmer of Bryher (at Bank Farm).
He was son of Robert Pender (b 1771) and Joyce Hicks.
Elizabeth Pender (nee Jenkins) was great grandmother to my grandmother Winifred Thompson (nee Pender).
Elizabeth's grandfather was John Jenkins (b1723).
That particular Jenkins family were from Tresco.
This picture appears to be c1860.
The Jenkins, I was told, were stalwarts, upstanding, all very straight, everything had to be just so; The Penders were also fine and very religious, a typical Island mind that could cope with anything that life threw at them. Blue eyes, yes.
 
Do you know, tpp, I wanted to ask that very same question, but I decided not to, partly because of issues of different genders.
