NotesOn December 5 1912, Frederick Jenkins, 9, departed for Australia on board the Australind. He was placed at Fairbridge Farm School, Pinjarra, Western Australia.

Frederick Edward Jenkins was born in Islington, London, on April 7, 1903, the son of William Edward and Clara Jenkins, formerly Williams. Frederick was just over a year old when his mother died at the age of 38.

Started his working life as a farm hand, but can be found in 1937 working as a miner. The Old Fairbridgian Association register notes confirm that Frederick was not considered to be a very satisfactory worker at his early jobs, but appeared to be doing quite well by the time he was working as a miner in Collie.

Married twice, first to Ivy who passed away in 1960, and then to Anne Gwendoline. Frederick himself passed away on July 8, 1974 aged 71 in Fremantle, Western Australia. ... He appears to have been cremated and is
memorialized at Fremantle Cemetery. His second wife, Anne Gwendoline was aged 90 years when she passed away on November 14, 2000. She is also memorialized at Fremantle Cemetery.'
