James Jenkins was born in Dublin in 1829.  It could have been 20th June, 1829 and he may have been Baptised on the 29th June at St Catherine's and he may have lived on Rainsford Street.  this is the only record I've found, but have not idea if it is correct!  

James' parent were Thomas (and Mary.)

James was on the 1851 Census with his mum Mae in Baildon near Bradford and married Julia Lenehan (several different spellings through her life) on the 8th August 1852 at Bradford St Peter (Bradford Cathedral.)  Her father is shown as Daniel Lenehan.

James and Julie were in the 1861, 71, 81 (no Julia) and 91 Census, in Yorkshire, finishing up in Huddersfield.  

Both James and Julia died at he Union Workhouse, Lockwood, Huddersfield which is sad as both worked throughout their working life.

It would be very interesting to know of James '(and Julia) life in Ireland.
