Notes

!.....R60/756 History of Franklin Co., Fannett twp. p 756-757: Farmer, P.O. Dry Run, was born October 11, 1815, the sixth child of Stephen Skinner, a son of William Skinner. He remained at home until he was of age and for several years drove a team to Pittsburgh. At the age of twenty five, he married Margaret, daughter of John Flickinger. She died leaving eight children, but one now living, Stephen. Mr. Skinner's second wife is Jane Beers, a native of Huntingdon County, and a daughter of Alexander Beers. To this union ten children were born (nine now living), viz.: Robert, Eldorado, Gilson, Nancy M., Clinton, Wilbert, Mary, Retta J., Emma C., and Anna M. (latter deceased). In 1844 Mr. Skinner moved on the place where he now resides, and on which he has put all the improvements. He had but $700 when he bought the property, and has now three farms, making 600 acres in all. Mr. Skinner has been very industrious and probably did more hard work than any other man in this Valley. In politics he is a Republican.
