Jane Renwick Smedburg Wilkes (November 22, 1827 – January 19, 1913) was an American nurse and civic leader. She was a Confederate nurse during the American Civil War, volunteering at Wayside Hospital and the Confederate Military Hospital in Charlotte, North Carolina. After the war, Wilkes served on the Woman's Auxiliary to the Board of Missions of the Episcopal Church and as president of the Women's Aid Society of St. Peter's Episcopal Church. In 1867, she co-founded St. Peter's Hospital, the first civilian hospital in North Carolina. Like other hospitals in segregated North Carolina, St. Peter's didn't admit Black people. In 1892, she opened Good Samaritan Hospital, the first hospital for African Americans in North Carolina.
