Overviewhe Jenkins of Stowting-Fleeming's grandfather-Mrs. Buckner's fortune-Fleeming's father; goes to sea; at St. Helena; meets King Tom; service in the West Indies; end of his career-The Campbell-Jacksons-Fleeming's mother-Fleeming's uncle John.In the reign of Henry VIII., a family of the name of Jenkin, claiming to come from York, and bearing the arms of Jenkin ap Philip of St. Melans, are found reputably settled in the county of Kent. Persons of strong genealogical pinion pass from William Jenkin, Mayor of Folkestone in 1555, to his contemporary 'John Jenkin, of the Citie of York, Receiver General of the County, ' and thence, by way of Jenkin ap Philip, to the proper summit of any Cambrian pedigree-a prince; 'Guaith Voeth, Lord of Cardigan, ' the name and style of him. It may suffice, however, for the present, that these Kentish Jenkins must have undoubtedly derived from Wales, and being a stock of some efficiency, they struck root and grew to wealth and consequence in their new home.
