He was born in Boston on 1848, the son of Nathaniel and Mary Tucker Jenkins. In 1872 he and his brother Charles formed a partnership under the title of Jenkins Brothers, to continue the manufacture of valves and mechanical rubber goods, a business founded by their father. Later, on ~~aqcuiring~~ his brother's interest, Alfred B. changed the form of the organization into a company under the same title, distributing a portion of the stock among his employees. The enterprise was built up on the recognized merit of the product and the personality back of it. The broad and liberal attitude of the management is well known, but the personal charities and beneficence of the deceased are little known and unheralded, being considered by him as personal matters bearing their own reward in their doing.
