Hi Laura,
It seems that yourSKIEF relatives go back to John F and Winnie Edwards Skief.Jesse seems to be a popular name, because they had a child, or maybe grandchild, named Jesse who married Clara Eakers, sometimes called "Unknown".Jesse and Clara had several children, two of them being Jess and Mary Jane.Mary Jane Skief, born 17 Sep 1897, MO, married Walter Archie Walker, born, 18 Nov 1886, MO.This is my grandmother and grandfather.Now, great Uncle Jess married Pearl (don't know her last name), and they lived next door to my grandma.I have visited them there in Kennett, Dunklin County, MO, when I was a child.We would visit once a year when my dad was laid off from the GM shop in Flint, MI, in the summer for changeover.I still remember the hot, sandy street burning the soles of my bare feet as I would bravely (read "foolishly") run to the store from East Street to the store on the pavement road, like in 1950s, etc.Do you have any new info?Thanks.My email address [email protected]
