Abstract:
Leo E. Arthur and Lillie Estelle (Peggy) Jenkins married in 1926 and lived in Covington and Hinton, Virginia.

It primarily documents the history of the Henry and Mandy M. Arthur family of Allegheny County, Virginia, from the mid-nineteenth century to the mid-twentieth century, and the Thurmond and Phoebe Strong Jenkins family of Bath County, Virginia, from the early nineteenth century to the mid-twentieth century.
