JOSEPH SKAGGS was a good, humble man, of moderate ability, but of devoted piety. He was licensed to preach, by Union church in Warren county, about 1841, and was ordained a year or two afterwards. Soon after his ordination, with the aid of George Butler and O. H. Morrow, he gathered Harmony church in Allen county. To this congregation, and perhaps to some others, he ministered a few years. He died of lung disease, about 1855.
