    1. [GA-JONES] SKINNER GENEALOGY - Sarah Mustaine Skinner
    2. Ray Ryan
    3. Sarah Mustaine Skinner was born 1842 in Griswoldville, Ga. and died 1901 in Jones Co., Ga. She first married John G. Patton who was killed at the 2nd Battle of Manassas on Aug. 20, 1862. Her second marriage was to David W. Lester, Jr. on Sept. 25, 1866 in Griswoldville, Ga. In an attempt to determine her ancestors and, ultimately, her "Skinner" line, I posted a query on this forum in 1999. The information I received as a result of my query is shown below: RE:1850 Census for Cobb Co., Ga., page 96: James M. Skinner, age 40, Town Magistrate, born in Virginia Ann M. Skinner, age 33, born in Georgia Virginia P. Skinner, age 13, born in Georgia Ann J. Skinner, age 10, born in Georgia Sarah M. Skinner, age 8, born in Georgia Brooks Skinner, age 3, born in Georgia George L. Willy, age 26, living with them, born in Georgia I am a descendent of her second marriage to David W. Lester, Jr. Their children were: Lovick Pierce Lester born May 23, 1878 (my grandfather) Illda Lester Annie Lester Gertrude G. Lester born 1872 Maud L. Lester born 1874 Clifford Lester born 1876 Hugh David Lester born February 13, 1881 Vida Mustaine Lester born July 12, 1885 Appreciate any information related to the above named, those of the Skinner, Patton, and Lester lines. Thank you.
