John Skillin

1815 - Yes, date unknown

• Name	John Skillin
  Birth	Ireland
  Christening	30 Jan 1815	Killinchy, Down Co., Ireland   [1]
  Gender	Male
  Death	Yes, date unknown
  Notes	(Research):There is a John Skillin listed in the 1870 Census in Forestport, Oneida Co., New York which could possibly be this individual. His date of birth is 1811, he is married to Mary and has two children living with him; Rebecca, 21, and William, 19. These are both commonly used family names and is further evidence that this may be our John Skillin. However, the children are stated to have been born in Ireland, which would conflict with the notion that John's father William came with the family from Ireland between 1819 and 1830. If this were the case, one would expect that John's children would have been born in New York.
