I am going to send this to the ARDREW-L@rootsweb.com Someone on the list may know something about your Skippers that is on-line. If you are interested in subscribing, you simply put ARDREW-L-request@rootsweb.com There are lots of really helpful people on the site. By the way, there are no names on the Civil War Monument in the cemetery, and yes, it used to be on the courthouse square. There is a Dock Daniel mentioned in James Willis' book: Arkansas Confederates in the Western Theater. Daniel, Dock 330 Daniel, Franklin n389,389 Daniel, Joseph A. n389,389 Daniel, Rufus W. 156, 205, 241, 396, 400 Daniels, J.A. 272 (by the rdea, what does the n mean?) Can anyone help this lady with her Skipper family? If so, it would be much appreciated if you would reply to her personally as she is not currently on the list.
