Jessica Kent was the mother of Jonathan Kent and the wife of Hiram Kent.
Early life
She was born sometime in the 1920s, Jessica gave Martha Kent, her daughter-in-law, a necklace on her wedding day.
Season Three
Hiram and Jessica help "Joe".
After Louise McCallum was killed on June 17, 1961, her accused murderer "Joe" came across Hiram and his wife Jessica at the Kent Farm. Jessica gave Joe one of Hiram's jackets so he wouldn't stand out. Before leaving the farm with Joe, Hiram said goodbye to Jessica and their unborn child "Gene" but she insisted his name would be Jonathan.
