Sources

The English family receives authoritative treatment from Meredith B. Colket Jr., The Jenks Family of England, New England Historical and Genealogical Register 110 (1956): 9-20, 81-93, 162-72, 244-56, and Meredith B. Colket Jr., The Father of Joseph Jenks of Lynn: A Proposed Solution to an Intriguing Genealogical Puzzle, New England Historical and Genealogical Register 122 (1968): 168-71. For the American generations, I rely largely on John Osborne Austin, The Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island; Comprising Three Generations of Settlers Who Came Before 1690 (1887; reprint, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1978), 113, 439.
