I have been trying to locate Jennie Mabel Hearst's parents in England. Jennie was born Sep 1868 (maybe 1870) we believe in Somerset England. Supposedly her father was a vetinarian (farrier?) - according to tradtion he was the first one to recommend setting a horses leg instead of shooting the horse. We think she came to USA about 1880 and then married William Eldred in Leavenworth KS. While I have information of her after her marriage to William, I find no information before that. Oral information is that her father was named John and that she came over with two brothers, but again, any information will help!
