Jonny's mother

Jonny's unnamed mother is the deceased mother of Jonny Quest and wife of Benton Quest. She died when Jonny was still young.

Overview
Very little information is given about Jonny's mother, but she presumably died when a foreign agent attempted to use her to compromise Dr. Quest. Following her death, the government would take no chances of the same happening to Dr. Quest's son Jonny, and assigned Intelligence One agent Race Bannon to protect him.

Quotes
Mention of Jonny's mother in The Mystery of the Lizard Men: "Roberts: Is our man Race Bannon still assigned to guard the doctor's boy?

Corvin: Twenty-four hours a day as tutor, companion and all around watchdog. You see, since Jonny lost his mother, the government is taking no chances with the boy's security.

Roberts: Security?

Corvin: Yes. You see, if Jonny fell into the hands of enemy agents, Dr. Quest's value to science would be seriously impaired."
