Harry Riley Skinner

While working in River Hill Cemetery on Monday I came across Harry Riley Skinner. Harry's headstone was in the far north west corner and had fallen over. After I got the stone reset and cleaned I wondered what happened to Harry and where his family was. So today I went to the library and found his obituary.

Harry R Skinner, the little son of Theodore & Edith Skinner, was born August 5, 1907, died February 6, 1908, being 6 month and 1 day old. His death being caused by measles.


Theodore Skinner (1880-1952) & Edith A Cannon Skinner (1884-1966) were married January 14, 1905. They had 5 children: William Herschel 1906, Harry 1907, Marshall 1909, Genevive 1911, & Maxine 1913. Harry doesnt have any family in River Hill with him but they pick a great spot just up the hill from White River for him to rest. RIP Harry
