General Notes: Husband - Thomas Morton Jenkins


He and his brother, Robert, Jr., were educated at the public schools and at the Western University of Pennsylvania. They did a wholesale and retail coal business on the Youghiogheny, Monongahela and Ohio rivers, and were the owners of three steamboats, the "Vigilant," the "Resolute" and the "Robert Jenkins." Besides, they were interested in many corporations and industrial enterprises, and left a large amount of property in the shape of personal and real estate. The firm of Jenkins Brothers was known in the city of Pittsburgh and they soon became one of the leading shippers of bituminous coal in eastern Pennsylvania.
