Thomas Skinner, Baker of Boston (??-1690) · 3 June 2016
I'm offering a clarification on one of the memorials from the Kings Chapel Burying Ground in Boston, MA.
The Thomas Skinner who died 28 December 1690 (Find-A-Grave #39429020) is found in a number of references and is identified as "Baker" or "Baker of Boston." http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=39429020
In "Boston Births, Baptisms, Marriages, and Deaths, 1630-1699" (http://goo.gl/Zfv3Dr) page 194, (http://goo.gl/39bQMm), this Thomas Skinner who “dyed Decr 28” is listed as Thomas Skinner, Bakr.
Thomas Skinner (baker of Boston) who died 28 Dec 1690, was recorded as the 2nd husband of Eliz. Maverick in “Mayflower Births and Deaths, Volume 1 & 2” (http://goo.gl/6eZvrr).
The memorial (Find-A-Grave #39429020) states that Thomas Skinner was born 25 July 1645, and was shown the child of Sergeant Thomas Skinner and Mary. The son of Sgt. Thomas Skinner (who was baptized at Chichester, England 25 July 1645), and who married Mary Pratt, died between 1722-1732 in Colchester, CT. This memorial does NOT belong to the same Thomas Skinner, b1645, Chichester, son of Thomas Skinner c1617, immigrant, of Malden, MA.
The Thomas Skinner memorial 39429020 also shows a child, Nathaniel Skinner (113485840) as a son of this Thomas Skinner, (Baker). This Nathaniel Skinner was not a child of Thomas Skinner and Elizabeth Maverick.
Per the Silver Book of The Mayflower Families/Isaac Allerton Dea. Thomas Skinner is not shown as a son of Thomas 'the baker' Skinner of Boston and his wife Elizabeth Maverick Grafton Skinner (she was Isaac Allerton's granddaughter via Remember Allerton who married Moses Maverick). One son John is listed in the book along with several of his sisters. He was not included in the guardianship papers after Thomas 'the baker' died in 1690 - he was only 11 or 12 at the time of his father's death so if he was alive should have been included in the guardianship.
