Thank you so much for the helpful hints.  I will have to dig through my genealogy crate and pictures. I researched this family greatly back in the 1990's. Since then I haven't done a great deal, life got in the way for a bit.

I know the feeling of being excited about finding new info. But I have contacted you with addresses of Skelton family members. No I have not got into my genealogy box yet. I will get into it as soon as I have a moment. Life is extremely busy here, the delay can not be helped.

I really don't appreciate the implication that I have not contacted you at all though.

Peace.

Hi Guys,

Afraid my contributions are just small snippets now that I may come across, I have tried extensively to search for information as this thread shows.  If I can help either of you with any thing more specific, then please ask, perhaps I have missed something along the way.


Regards to you both.

Sandra  ;D

That was the beginning of my research into the family. When I found that grave stone in Anchorage. It took me months on end to type up all the stones there, many years ago. It is good to see pictures up now.

I started asking questions on how one of the older Skeltons got to Anchorage, when I had thought the only family there was my sons.
