William Otto & Clara Onetta Skinner

William Otto (b. 1872), son of Granville (b. 1832) and Martha (Walton) Skinner (b. 1832) married Clara Onetta Skinner (b. 1878). , daughter of Jackson McWhorter (b. 1843) Patience (Duvall) Skinner (b.1846).

Yes, they were first cousins. On the right is a photo of William Otto with 4 of his and Clara's boys. Below is Clara.

This is the William Otto (b. 1872) who stayed home. A June 12, '06 entry discussed another William Otto Skinner (b. 1849) who married a California girl named Belle and finally settled in Independece, MO. (see entry for June 12. '06, William O. Skinner Went West.) He was this William O.'s uncle: brother to Granville and Jackson.

Recap:
3 of Alexander & Phoebe (Conrad) Skinner's children:
Granville B. + Martha Walton = William Otto (the younger)
Jackson McWhorter + Patience Duvall = Clara Onetta
William Otto (the elder) moved to CA, married Belle (Nichols? Fertig?) then moved to MO

Photos from Crystal Kearns. Many thanks.
