General Notes: Husband - Morrow R. Skinner, Jr.


He was reared in the village of Roxbury, Franklin County, Pennsylvania, and in the spring of 1872 began for himself in the mercantile business. In 1874 he took in J. A. Stitt as partner, who conducted the store while he himself carried on the stock business, and for several years was engaged in bringing stock from Kentucky, being among the first to make a business of importing stock from that State, continuing in that line until 1884.
He conducted his farm and mill, and was connected with stock raising. He was a candidate for sheriff of the county, and was supervisor for some years. Mrs. Skinner was a Presbyterian, while Mr. Skinner leaned toward the faith of his father, that of the Methodist Protestant denomination.
