Alfred's second wife was Miriam Hester Hopkins Emery.
Alfred's obituary appeared in Chatfield Democrat in Minnesota on January 30, 1896.
"Another Old Citizen and G. A. R. Veteran Gone."
"Although A. V. Jennings has been
more or less an invalid for some time,
his death last Saturday seemed sudden
and unexpected to his friends.
Last week the DEMOCRAT stated that
he had been prostrated by a severe
attack of rheumatism, but there
seemed to be no reason then to suppose
that he was so near his earthly
end. He died very unexpectedly last
Saturday afternoon, about 2 o'clock,
the immediate cause of his death being
consumption of the lungs, a disease
which had long affected him.
The deceased was in the 69th year of
his age.
A. V. Jennings was an old and
esteemed citizen of this place. He
located in Chatfield before the opening
of the rebellion and on March 27,
1865, he enlisted a private in company
G, first United States engineers,
and was regularly discharged, Sept.
26, 1865. He was one of the charter
members of the G. A. R. post of this
place, and always took a prominent
and active part in its affairs. He
was quartermaster sergeant at the
time of his death, and served for
several years as adjutant. He always
took the interest felt by every good
citizen in public affairs. He served
for a time on the board of supervisors
of Elmira township and also held the
office of justice of the peace for several
years in the city of Chatfield. Mr.
Jennings was a member of the
Baptist church and a faithful observer
of Christian duty. His intercourse
with others was cordial and
affable, and those who associated
with him will always have pleasant
memories of his kind disposition.
The funeral took place from the
residence at 10:30 a. m., Tuesday, the
services being conducted by Rev. G.
S. Parker. The burial was in charge
of the G. A. R. post and attended by
the W. R. C."
