I think that looks good

[MarkCDodd]

The Wilkes/Webb connection is a good one.

I will run with that and see if it makes any sense....

Zilla's first husband was a Benjamin Skidmore.

The Benjamin in the 1841 census was their only child before Benjamin Snr kicked the bucket in 1832.

This is Benjamin Jnr's Baptism.

I can't find the marriage between Benjamin Skidmore and Zilla so I do not know her maiden name.

http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =181279569


is there a marriage to a Benjamin Skidmore to a Morris?

I don't think she married Benjamin as on birth I would expect to see
Priscilla Webb formerly Skidmore formerly Morris
which is what I usually see although not always
