Okay, this is what I (with a lot of help from Tammy Owen) have come up
with on Nora Jenkins Tiner (my great grandmother, maternal)

Edward W. Jenkins, Jr.
married Mary C. Faith on 9/26/1850 (per Texas marriage records)

They had the following children:

Charles b: abt. 1862 d: 12/4/33; He married Willie S. Trigg - I have
some long-stem glasses etched 1889 with "Willie S. Jenkins" engraved on
them (now I know why my grandmother had them!!) I've had these glasses
for about 15-20 years and just now have found out who they belonged to!
Ruth b: abt. 1867; married Oliver Johnson
Mary b: abt. 1869
Nora Lee b: 8/22/1876; d: 8/24/62 (this is my great grandmother)
(per 1880 census records)

Mary Faith Jenkins died around 1881 and Edward married Caroline Glover
in 1882 (I have the BIG bible of Edward & Caroline's with their marriage
date recorded)
As far as I know (per stories from my mother) Edward and Caroline had
one son, Edward and a daughter, Alma.

Nora Jenkins married Benjamin Franklin Tiner (son of Lewis Taylor Tiner
and Martha Kelly)
they had:

Edward Warren Tiner (later changed his name to Joe Tiner) He didn't
like the name Edward Warren; he died in 1994 in San Leon, TX
Clarence Lee Tiner - deceased
Mary Lou - died as an infant
Eva Ruth Tiner (my grandmother) - deceased in 1995

Thanks to Tammy Owen for all the help she gave me. If anyone has more
info or tidbits, please post!!
