INDEX
Notes
!.....Dawson, Al (11/96)

William Grant Cook, who wrote that Cooked-Book in WRHS Library (I've
got a copy at home too) [produced myriad errors] ... today I compared his
book with one I found on the shelves about the Skinner family, an allied
branch. Sallie Marie Andrews Cook was my great-great-great
grandmother ... she and daughter Susan Cleveland Cook Creighton are
buried in same grave-site in Massillon, one I visited with Wooster buddy
in 1993...her mother was Betsey Skinner, who married Solomon Andrews
in 1819 in Claremont, N. H. .... W. G. Cook (a cousin of my
great-grandmother, Margaret Ida Creighton Mason) has this, but all else,
including Betsey's birth-date and place of birth all wrong...and more
importantly, his tree for her ALL WRONG...now I've not done any
verification of the Skinner material yet, but given the other flaws I
found in WGC's book...he was a scoundrel, my grandfather Henry was right
in not donating to the book! :)
Betsey was descended from a Sergant Thomas Skinner who came to
America from Chichester in England between 1649 and 1651 (he was
born in 1617) ... Not able to copy it all down today, but Skinner settled in
Malden, Mass and after two Abrahams...son and grandson...came Benjamin
Skinner, born in Malden in 1727 and married in Woodstock, Conn. in 1750
or 51, one Elizabeth Lyon, dtr of Jacob and Mehetable (Bugbee) Lyon of
West Woodstock, Conn. She was born 1731. They "removed" [as people
often did in those days] to Wilbraham, Mass. He did around 1774, after
producing nine kids, the last of whom was Baxter Skinner, who was
baptised in Woodstock, Conn (must have removed more than once!) in
1772. Baxter Skinner married Miriam Prouty, dtr of Samuel and Miriam
(Stevens) Prouty (born 1778) in 1797 in Langdon, New Hampshire. In the
following year, Betsey was born there. So I have a lot of new lines to
follow up!
