Jemina was born to Daniel and Emma (Howting) Solley, both of England. She was born in Ohio. Her daughter listed her as being born in Canton, OH on her death record, however, it must be noted that the older children of Daniel and Emma were born in Fairfield County, Ohio with the family moving to Will County, Illnois by 1880. Jemina is listed in the 1880 Census with her family of origin living in Will County, IL.

Jemina married Louis Arthur Curtiss in 1895. Louis was born in England. They had 2 children, Lucille (born in Illinois) and Arthur Louis (born in St. Louis, Missouri). Jemina is living alone with her 2 small children in a Lodging House in St. Louis, MO for the 1910 Census and listed as married x 15 years. Husband, Louis, is scarce in records. He is listed on son, Arthur's Missouri Birth record and again in his obituary, otherwise seems untraceable. Jemina may have been widowed by 1917.

In 1917, Jemina married Arthur Screeton in St. Louis, MO. They remained in St. Louis and Jemina's children Lucille and Arthur are listed as Mr. Screeton's stepchildren in the 1920 census. Mr. Screeton had 3 adult children from a previous marriage. He and Jemina were married for 8 years til his death in 1926.

Jemina made her home with her daughter, Lucille (Curtiss) Schira after the death of Mr. Screeton, continuing to live in St. Louis, MO. Jemina died in 1960. She was 82 years old. Her burial place is listed as New Pickers Cemetery (now Gatewood Gardens) on her death record. She was a homemaker, and beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother.
