Extended Family

Matthew Skeen II
(abt. 1737 in VA - abt. 1814 in Rowan Co., NC)
son of Mathew Skeen (1701 Scotland-1748 VA) and Jannetjie Titus (c1702-a1748)

Matthew married Rutha Lamar (c1747 in VA - 1816 in Guilford, NC)
Rutha is the daughter of James Lamar (c1715 in MD - c1786 in GA) and Verlinda Osbourne (c1720-c1758)

This page has been set up to document the DNA matches that connect to my ancestor William John Marshall (1799-1837)
and his potential brother John Neil Marshall (c1787-c1860).  Both William and John's lines share a large number
of DNA matches that originate from Matthew and his wife Rutha.  Research is ongoing to determine
the exact connection to this family.

I have 35 DNA matches from this family

The 10 children of Matthew and Rutha are:
Jacob (c1769) Verlinda (c1770) Jane S. (1771) James (c1772) Tabitha (c1774)
Matthew (1775) Rutha (c1777) Sarah (1779) John (1783) Martha (1790)
