DISTINGUISHING FEATURES/PARTICULARS
She had migrated with her parents and siblings, Clark SKINNER b. 1794 KY and Lucinda "Susanna" unknown b. 1812 KY, Peyton S., William, Elizabeth Jane, Mary, Sarilda "Sarah" Ann, James H., John Riley and David J. from Garrard Co.KY to Beech Creek Twp., Greene Co.IN around 1852. Her father died 1858 and she lived with her Mother there until I found her living with her brother David J. in Owen Co., her mother was living at that time with their sister Sarilda "Sarah" Ann SKINNER BURKS and John T. BURKS family also living in Clay Twp., Owen Co.IN on the 1880 census. I have checked the surrounding counties for marriages and burials of Melvina SKINNER and she is no where to be found. Not living with other family members anywhere? Where did she go? There are members of her family buried at the Andrew Livingston Cemetery in Greene Co.IN, Beech Creek Twp., but only 2 of them are listed as buried there, but I am pretty certain that both her parents are buried there as well. Her mother dying in 1887. I've found the rest of this SKINNER family and I would really love to find her as well. If anyone has a clue about Melvina, please contact me.
