Pam,
Given my research on the SKINNER and BULL family in Porter County,
Indiana, I don't think there is any connection to SITTING BULL. I have
quite a bit of information on the BULL line and I have heard stories
concerning SITTING BULL, but I have yet to verify any data on a
connection. Two of Stephen and Mariette SKINNER's daughters married BULL
brothers; Rebecca Angeline SKINNER married Miles Oscar BULL and Elma
Elizabeth SKINNER married George William BULL. You can find detailed
genealogical information on my personal website at:
http://users.moscow.com/woodisgood/home.htm
Click on the genealogy link for vital data, including information on
Stephen Leroy SKINNER and Mariette WILLY. The images link will take you
to photographs.
I hope this information can assist you.
Best regards,
Steve Shook
