About James Skinner Buffett

Petitioned for naturalization, 23 Feb 1943. In the form, #692, he stated that he had emmigrated from Halifax, Canada, but had been born in Sydney, Canada. He listed his birthday as 09 Nov but listed a slightly younger date than his gravestone states (giving 1893 as opposed to the gravestone's 1887).

He listed that he had married Hilda Seymour on 12 Aug 1918 in Gulfport, Mississippi... that he had been living at 316 McKinley Street in Pascagoula... and that they'd had children, who he listed as: James, Jr., Patricia, Catherine, and William.

Witnesses: P. H. Walker and C. B. Canty, both of Pascagoula. Naturalization was granted, certificate # 5820587

Some say he was the son of William Buffet (1859-1917) and Catherine (Skinner) Buffett (1862-1948). Sadly, I couldn't find their place of burial.
