53. Samuel L. Jenkins

Monuments combining marble and granite became possible after the discovery of marble in Vermont (1790's) and granite in nearby West Quincy (1840's). Jenkins’ granite base is topped by a marble shaft on which stands the full-sized marble figure of an anguished woman with her hand resting on an anchor. His father was a master mariner, which may indicate why the statue features an anchor, a symbol of faith, steadfastness, and hope in the Christian tradition.
