JENKINS SARAH
Buried: 3 Apr 1852
Lot 5581 Section 53

Message rec'd from a relative:
"I believe that Sarah's birth name was Gard(i)ner. This was the result of an application for membership in The New Jersey Society of the Sons of the
American of the American Revolution by Walter MacDougall Livingston in 1929."

It detailed his lineage of Helena Kate Livingston Hartshorne, Richard Thomas Hartshorne/Catharine Jenkins, Thomas Jenkins/
Sarah Gardiner, and John Gardiner.


Married: Thomas Jenkins, buried in the same lot.

Thomas and Sarah Jenkins show up living in the 10th Ward of Brooklyn in the 1850 census. But in 1860, Thomas is living in the home of his son-in-law (Robert Sarjeant) in Brookln's 11th Ward. Sarah is not there. This supports the 1852 death date for Sarah.
