Julia Rugg Jenkins (Jenkens) was born "about 1865" in Illinois.A 1910 census from Lake County, Indiana lists her as age 45.I am guessing that since Julia and Calvin Jenkins moved around as much as Frank and Aurelia Rugg, that Calvin was a train man as well.
Frank and Aurelia (spelled Orelia here) appear on an 1880 census from Centralia, Illinois.He appears as "Frank A. Rugg".He is 39 years old, Orelia is 41, and children are Julia R. Rugg (14), Frank E. Rugg (11), and Albert W. Rugg (10).That would make him 25 when Julia was born.I'm not sure if that could indicate a second marriage or not.
