Sometime after 1810 the family removed to Susquehanna Co., PA, (then Luserne Co.) where they located on a farm adjoining Jacob Skinner's in Oakland Twp. Here is where Dr. Israel Skinner practiced medicine and raised a large family. He is mentioned as an author and practicing physician (1814) in Blackman's Susquehanna Co., History. Israel's farm is said to have been a one time residence of (Mormon) Joseph Smith.

There is land records for Jefferson Co., WI that  William T.Skinner purchased 40 acres of land March 1, 1950. Record of this land is in the William T. Skinner file. Unknown at this time if it was purchased by William T. Skinner but William T. Skinner did sell some land to Jacob Skinner in 1856.

There is also  40 acres purchased by a William Skinner on September 1. 1848. Unsure if this is the same William Skinner because there is no middle initial of "T" but a copy is in William T. Skinner's file.

In 1850 census, WI, Jefferson Co., Palmyra Twp, page 174; William T. Skinner age 24, farmer, property value 22, born PA, Patty, female age 64 or 69 born NY, Anna C. female age 22, born PA

Volunteers, and served at least 90 days in the War of the Rebellion, in the service of the United States, who was HONORABLY DISCHARGED  on the 12 day of December 1862 and died the 28th day of March 1898. That she was married under the name of Sarah Jane Bassett, to said William T. Skinner on the 10th day of June 1862 by-----, at Philadelphia, PA, there being no legal barrier to said marriagae.  She has not remarried since the death of said William T.

In one page it states that he was missing in action at Bull Run  and was in the hospital at, and it states that he had deserted, but the charge of desertion of August 20, 1862 is now void. This is mentioned int he War Department Adjutant General Office, Washington , August 14, 1886. He was discharged December 12, 1862 on surgeons certificate of disability-it appears he was disabled from a arthiritis. It appears that he had not really desserted but it was assumed and he had been in the hospital ill and the charge was voided out.

His certificate of discharge from the Army of the US, Certificate of Disability for discarge  states that he was born in Susquehanna Co., PA and is at the time of discharge date, age 35, five feet and 7 1/2 inches tall light complexion, blue eyes and light hair and when he enlisted his occupation was a butcher.

In Hattie Bates-Manthei's information that Hattie gave for the Wausau Centennial Assoc. (sent to me by Beth Stahr in 1995,) it stated that Sarah Jane Basset was born in Baltimore, MD.

In 1900 Census WI, Juneau Co., Plymouth Twp., ; Sarah is age 64  born June 1835, born in MD, she ls living with her son's Charlie and Herman

In 1905 WI state census, Juneau Co., Plymoth Twp., page ?; Sarah J. is age 70 widowed , born Ohio, and parents born Ohio, she is living with her son Charles H. Skinner.

The Elroy Tribune dated march 24, 1910 had the following death notice for Sarah Jane Skinner;    Mrs. Sarah Skinner who's health has been failing during the past year, died at her home Monday, March 21, at the age of 75. Her sons, Frank, Roy and Herman from Northern Wisconsin and a daughter, Mrs. Greek from Millston came down to the funeral, which was held on Wednesday.

In the paper also about the same time was a news item that Mrs. Hattie Smith  and cousin of Wausau are visiting in the home of her Uncle Charles Skinner.

Sarah Jane Bassett Skinner's death information, located in the Register of Deeds office, Mauston, Juneau Co., WI , Book 4 page 523 gives the following information:   Sarah Jane Skinner, female, white, date of birth, June 12, 1833, born PA, father's name-James Bassett, born England, mother's name-Sarah___, born England, informant of her death was Elias M. Skinner, date of death-March 21 1910 at 7:00PM, cause of death-cerebal hemorage, contributing cause of death-Senility. M. D. was Dr. C. A. Vogel, Burial Mt. Zion Cemetery, buried-March 23, 1910.

Sarah notes in1870 census she was born in MD. No parents birthplaces listed.

1880 census shows Sarah born MD, father born MD, mother born VA

1905 WI state census it states that Sarah was born in OH as was born parents. She is older at this time and lives with her son Charles. Charles may have given the information and then again Sarah may have given it and her mind may not have been clear.

She may be a descendant of the Basset's in England who I have found information in Rootsweb Genealgoy web site. I have not found Sarah Jane or her father but have found a James m. born 1522, then son(?) John Basset (one t ) born Tehidy, Cornwall, England and died 1-31-1527 or 28. John Basset married Honor Grenville Viscountess Lisp, born 1476, Kilhampton, Cornwell, England.  This information may not be part of Sarah Jane's Basset's family but am holding it here until further information is found.

Charles Henry Skinner's death certificate located in the Juneau Co., WI courthouse, book 16 page 426 stated that he died at 5:00 PM and the informant of his death was Elias Skinner, brother to Charles.

In Charles Skinner's probate records at the Juneau Co., WI courthouse it stated that the information given to the courts was given by his brother Oliver Skinner. It stated that Frank Skinner's girl died in childbirth and the she left a child. It stated that the child was born 1928 in Wausau, WI at St. Mary's Hospital.

In conversation with Vernie Skinner 4/93; Vernie stated that Charlie Skinner got the original Skinner home place. Charles then bought his own place on the edge of Elroy, Juneau Co., WI. A Hattie Smith and husband Julius Manthei  came to stay with Charley and somehow got the farm  from Charley. Charley bought about an 80 acre farm outside Elroy after that. Elias Skinner helped his brother Charley on that farm between 1934 and 1935 to clear out many trees. See Elias Skinner "notes" for information on his stay on Charlie's farm.

Notes for FRANKLIN L. SKINNER:

  THIS IS ONLY THE INFORMATION THAT HAS APPEARED IN OBITUARIES AND OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS AND I HAVE PRINTED JUST WHAT THERE PREVIOUSLY WRITTEN. I DID NOT PUT MY OPINION IN THIS AT ALL.    IT IS CONFUSING AND THERE IS NO WAY THERE WILL BE A CLEAR CUT ANSWER . I HAVE HAD SOMEONE SEARCH MADISON VITAL RECORDS AND THEY HAVE FOUND NO MARRIAGE OF FRANK SKINNER AND GRACE THOMPSON.

I put Frank Skinner listed with wife Grace Thompson as was stated in different documents and news items in paper but I have found nothing in concrete evidence that shows that he was actually married to her. All family confirms that fact that he never married.

In the 1914 city directory for Wausau, Marathon Co., WI it shows Frank Skinner as a laborer living at: house on Thomas-S E corner 11th Ave. South. He lives in the same house as Hattie Greek lives (His niece).

In the 1916 city directory of Wausau, Marathon Co., WI, it shows F. L. Skinner at Route 6 Wausau.

In the 1918 city directory for Wausau, it shows Franklin L. Skinner, laborer living at 1015 Thomas.  Also living in the same home is Julius and Hattie Manthei, and Julius is listed as laborer and Julius is the owner of the house and Frank Skinner is shown as renter at 1015 Thomas.

In 1920 census,WI, Marathon Co., Wausau city 12 Ave.,ED 50 page 2; Frank Skinner is Ed'd  with Julius Manthei and is listed as Uncle. (The Uncle of Julius's wife, Hattie.)

Wrights Wausau City and Marathon County Directoy for 1925, page 775 shows Frank Skinner owning 80 acres in section 20 with an assessed value of $1250.

In some records it states that Frank Skinner was married to a Grace Thompson on the date mentioned on the family page and that they were the parents of Bessie Maude Skinner, (who's real mother was Hattie Bates). It is unknown if that is true or not or if Frank took the responsibility of Bessie to protect her from her real father who was supposedly a drunk and Hattie did not want George Smith, Bessie's father to find her. It appears that Frank was not married to a Grace Thompson but a story that him and Hattie kept to protect the child. On his tombstone it states FATHER  born 1878 and died 1933. 

The death certificate of Franklin Skinner which is located in the Marathon Co., WI courthouse at Wausau WI, states the following information from Volume 42 page 355:  Franklin L. Skinner, died August 21, 1933 at 2 P.M. in Town of Maine-Marathon Co. Age at death: 55 years 2 months and 22 days. Date of Birth; May 30, 1978 at Elroy, WI. Informant was Mrs. Julius Manthei of Wausau.   Burial at Pine Grove Cem., on August 23, 1933, cause of death: rupture of Aneurysm of Aorta, contributing cause of death was Myocarditis, confirmed by X-ray, Doctor; H. C. Frenzel, Wausau, WI, Widower of Grace Skinner. ( An added note that was sent to me by Lillian Zenner in 1995 stated: It showed Frank's address as 1101 So. 11th Ave. and his place of death as Town of Maine. We checked the Death Index for Grace Skinner and Grace Thompson and found no death record for her in this county for those years. On his death record his year of birth is 1878 which is the same as was put on his gravestone.)

The funeral notice for Frank Skinner appeared in the Wausau Daily Record Hearld, Wedensday, August 23, 1933, page 4:  SKINNER FUNERAL   Funeral services for Frank Skinner of the town of Maine, who died here Monday at the home of his niece, Mrs. Julius Manthei, 1101 South 11th Ave, were held this afternoon at the Manthei residence. The Rev. E. C Grauer officaiting. Burial was in Pine Grove Cem. The obituary had about the same thing but it did add that he was born May 30, 1878 in Elroy. He was married to Grace Thompson 25 years ago in Kilbourn, who died a later. For twenty years the deceased had resided in the town of Maint. Mr. Skinner is survived by one granddaughter, Lillian Schwantes of Schofield, 6 brothers, Charles Skinner of Mauston, Elias Skinner and Oliver Skinner of Elroy, Roy Skinner and Herman Skinner of Eagle River and Arthur Skinner of Duluth  and one sister , Mrs. Amanda Greek of Eagle River.

It is found in the Illinois Valley News, January 22, 1966 and is in part: A raging fire claimed the live of 89 year old Herman Leslie Skinner of Rockydale Road early Tuesday morning and reduced his frame dwelling to rubble.   Neighbor Dennis Robin, 18, arriving home at the time spotted the fire, called his father to call the fire department and rushed over to the small house. Flames kept him from entering the rear door and as Robin rushed around to the front, he spotted Skinner, in the flames, just emerging. heat again kept Robin from getting close so he ran home for a blanket.  Returning to the fire, the youth was aided by Fred Davis, who happened to be passing by at the time. In dragging Skinner away, Skinner with only shirt collar and cuffs remaining of his clothing, was pronounced dead at the scene by Dr. C. N. Verteeg. He body was taken to Hull and Hull funeral Home.  List of survivors in news article, which I won't add.    He was born February 1, 1876 at Mauston, WI and lived in the Selma area since ---??, only recently moving to Rockydale Road to be near his granddaughter and daughter in law.  Burial will be at Laurel Cem.
