Memory Text at Find a Grave,
Among prominent sons of Perquimans mention must be made of General William Skinner who saved the day at Great Bridge when the Continental troops were so hard pressed by the British. This splendid man served his county as faithfully in peace as he did in war and lies buried on a farm not far from Hertford.

This is not the same person as this William Skinner,
From various sources children are said to be from a William Skinner. If all of that would be true, these two Williams would be the same. I think the lineage I present is the correct one.
