Hi Betty,
It has been a while since you posted this message, so maybe you have already found the answer, but just in case, I believe her last name is Renninger. Below is an excerpt from an article in the Pottstown newspaper on 2/5/1902 about the bakery fire/explosion that killed her husband and son. It has her last name as Renniger, but I think that is a misspelling of Renninger.
"Much sympathy is expressed for Mrs. Shaner over her double bereavement. She is left with three young children, all of whom are unable to contribute to the support of the household. The husband was a son of Mrs. Henrietta Shaner, who resides with her daughter, Mrs. M. Luther Custer, in Pottstown. His son Lawrence was in the habit of going with his father everywhere he went. There are three surviving children - Paul, aged 11 years; Edgar, aged 9 years, and Charles, aged 18 months. Darius Shaner, of Mahanoy City, is a brother. His wife, Amanda Renniger, is a sister to Mrs. Howard Hartenstine, No. 839 South street, Pottstown."
Hope this helps.
Janis Tomko
