Martha (Patty) Saulsberry (Salisbury) who was born about 1786, probably in
Dutchess Co., NY, daughter of Jasper and Triphenia (Gillett) Saulsberry,

place at the home of Charles Gillett, brother of Patty's grandfather, John
Gillett, who lived at the foot of the Shawangunk Mountain in the town of
Deerpark, Orange Co., NY. Jasper Saulsberry belonged to the company called
"The Nine Partners" located east of the North River (Now the Amenia
Region)
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.

Notes for

MCDOWELL:
An interesting note which is found in the
book "The Skinner Kinsmen" page 20:
An interesting fact about Rhoda McDowell-Skinner, which I am sure
you will not find in history: We had this from my grandfather, Nathan
Skinner.-She was the midwife who delivered the only son of Joseph Smith (the
Mormon Prophet) and his wife Emma Hale Smith. It was their only child who
died in infancy and is buried in the McCune Cem. near Oakland, PA. Before
the baby was born, Joe Smith came with something in a pilowcase, telling
our grandmother it was the golden plates from which he was going to write
the Book of Mormom (Mormon Bible) He said that if anyone looked at the plates
before his child was born, which was to be a son, they would died. Rhoda
said that she would risk it if she could find something sharp to open the
sack, but everything sharp had been hidden. This is from a letter sent to
Olive. T. MacArthur by Margaret Lillie.

Notes for
WILLIAM
THOMPSON
SKINNER:
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
There is a marriage listed in Jefferson Co.,
WI Book C page 160 that shows a Wm Skinner marriage to a Leonora J. Sewell,
July 27, 1851. It was recorded August 2, 1851 as: State of Wisconsin, County
of Jefferson: I do hereby 27th day of July 1851, Wm Skinner and Leonora J.
Sewall of the County of Jefferson in the presence of Widow Sewall, her mother
and Helen Dewall at her nother's residence in the village of Palmyra in the
County of Jefferson. H. T. Lothrop,
minister. I do not know
if this is the same William Skinner but the residence at that time is the
same. I am putting in the history for now til I find more information on
it to prove one way or the other. In all records I never see this one listed
as William T. Skinner, which is always the name of greatgrandfather Skinner.
In 1855 WI Index at WI Historical Society:
William Skinner 1 male 1 female in household. Resides Jefferson Co., Palmyra
Twp.
There is a War Deed that I have in the Willliam
T. Skinner file where William T. Skinner sold Jacob Skinner a piece of land
in Palmyra Twp. of Jefferson Co., WI . The date on it appears to be January
3, 1856. See next entry for
full details.
I have an abstract of Deed sent to me by Mary
Rieder in 1993, which states: Kind of contract-Warrant Deed, County and
State-Jefferson Co., WI, Number 12914;

line to the place of
beginning. Name
of Witnesses: George J (?) Skinner and J. A. (?) Allen Justice of the Peace,
Signatures-William Skinner and sealed, recorded by Charles ? office of Register.
In 1860 census I have not found William Skinner
in this census yet.

this information was found at the Fort Wayne, IN library) A copy of this
was also sent to me by Mary Rieder in 1993.
Also the military records of William T. Skinner
show him with Roster Co. A, originally Co. K, 2nd Wisconsin infantry, Transferred
to first heavy artillery as a company organization), December 8, 1862, Pursuant
of Special order no. 172.

"Roster of Wisconsin volunteers, War of the Republic volume

William T.
Skinner is also listed in a
book of Wisconsin Volunteers of the Civil War as a private in Co. A, of the
38th infantry.
Also William T. Skinner is listed in the Wisconsin
Volunteers , book of the Civil War. He is listed on page 259, First Regiment
Heavy Artillery as living in Palmyra,WI, enlisted April 21, 1861 and his
date of discharge was December 12, 1862. A copy of this page is in his files.

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,

son(?) John Basset (one t ) born Tehidy, Cornwall, England and died 1-31-1527

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

left Herman Skinner in early 1930's and joined older children out
in Washington State. Unsure if they divorced.
The news item which I have in Herman's files
tells of his death in a house fire. 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 remainign
of his clothing, was pronounced dead at the scene by Dr. C. N. Verteeg. He
body was taken to Hull and Hull funeral nome
. List of survivors in news
article which I won't add.
He was born Febraury
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.
The death notice for Herman Leslie Skinner
which appeared in the Illinois Valley News, Febraury 3, 1966 was as follows:
Funeral services for Herman Leslie Skinner, who died January 25, were held
Wedensday at the Selma Baptist Church, Hull and Hull Funeral home in charge.
Burial at Laurel Cem.
