Sorry it hastaken so long to respond.
My great grandmother was Eliza Minerva Skaggs. Daughter of William Thomas and Martha?
I am trying to find out who Martha was.
I have no proof that Jacob and Anderson and the others were kin to William, but it all fits. I have acess to relatives and I would imagine that Dna testing would prove out a family tie. I am not ready to do that yet.
I would like to know who Martha was . From the family pictures I have, i would say that she was native american or at least part. I do know that william was a justice of the peace and that Jacob was a minister of the gospel in Missouri. And that Willilam moved to Chataqua county Kansas sometime after the death of his wife, he married again and she was native (Cherokee). I have been in touch with cousins and am pretty solid there.
thank you.
