Wife of Isaac C Skinner
FRANCES LANDER, born May 20, 1821, married ISAAC SKINNER, January 2, 1845. She was a natural born aristocrat, and a finer woman never lived. Mr. SKINNER had a fine estate on the turnpike, midway between Winchester and Mt. Sterling. My recollection of Uncle IKE is that he was a very soft-spoken man and was the most even-tempered man I every knew. They prospered greatly, built a fine large brick house on the pike and entertained royally. They were genuine Presbyterians of the old school. Uncle IKE was an elder for many years and chief supporter of the country church nearby. They had six children: PHINEHAS, who succeeded his father in the management of the farm and in the eldership of the church. His son LANDER owns the old place now. ISAAC, who is a widower with two sons, living at Grandview, Oregon; ALICE, who married TOM SOMERS and died without issue; JOSEPH H., who became a Presbyterian minister, was educated abroad, and died while pastor at Talladega, Alabama; CORNELIUS, who has been a prominent physician in Louisville, Kentucky, for many years; ALLEN, who died of consumption when about 24 years old, and Aunt FANNIE, who died at the age of 87 years old.
