Generation: 2

Daniel Jenckes was born on 19 Apr 1663 in Lynn, Essex Co, Massachusetts (son of Joseph Jenckes, I (immigrant) and Mrs. Elizabeth (..) Jenckes); died in 1736.

Notes:

Son of Joseph Jenckes and his second wife, Elizabeth ____ Jenckes.

He married, first, about 1693, as her second husband, Catherine (Balcom) Allen, the widow of Isaac Allen.

He married, second, after 1729, Mary Jenckes. Mary was apparently, according to resources I can find, his niece, the daughter of Joseph Jenckes Jr and Esther Ballard Jenckes, but I am skeptical of this.

Children(by first marriage): Mary Jenckes Weatherhead, Elizabeth Jenckes Hopkins, Abigail Jenckes, Martha Jenckes Arnold Aldrich, Susannah Jenckes Hopkins, Daniel Jenckes Jr(father of Jeremiah Jenks, Marcy Jenks, Hannah Jenckes Ray, John Jenckes, David Jenkes, Mary Jencks), Hannah Jenckes Ruttenberg, Ruth Jenckes Whipple, and Joseph Jenckes.
