Frank Jenkins Passed Away
Was an Early Day Settler of Emmet County – Has lived in Washington Many Years
Frank Jenkins
Kalama (Wash.) Bulletin: The subject of this sketch, Benjamin Franklin Jenkins, was born in Stuben county, New York, July 5, 1832, and died at Kelso, Washington, March 14, 1908, being 75 years, 8 months and 9 days of age.
He came west with his parents and settled in Calhoun county, Michigan, in 1844, where he lived for 10 years. From there he emigrated with the family to Emmet county, Iowa. Here he was married in December 1862 to Miss Hannah Howland. From this union five children were born of whom three survive him, Fred L. Jenkins of Martins Bluff, an honored and respected citizen of Cowlitz county, Miss Lucia Jenkins, one of Kelso'’s noted teachers, and Mrs. C.H. Lane of Multnomah county, Oregon.
He emigrated with his family to the Pacific coast in 1876 and settled at Martins Bluff. Since that time his life has been an open book to the early pioneers of that place. The hungry or the way farer was never turned from his door. His religion was love of humanity with a firm belief in a better and happier life hereafter.
He was laid to rest in the beautiful Martins Bluff cemetery which overlooks the grand Columbia river, in the place he loved so well, near his children and grandchildren who had already passed away. (Estherville Enterprise, Estherville, IA, April 1, 1908)
