Skinner Cemetery is located on the east side of M-99 between Vermontville Hwy. 
and Skinner Road in Windor Township, Eaton County - a few miles south of the 
Ingham/Eaton County border. There was considerable vandalism at this cemetery a 
few years ago so several stones have been broken and repaired making parts of 
the inscriptions impossible to read; several stones appear to be completely 
missing based on a prior recording from 1976.  Also, it appears some stones may 
not be in their original location.  A comparison of that 1976 recording and 
this one (2007) reveals some differences.  If a stone is now unreadable, 
information from the prior recording has been used.

The 1976 recording says this cemetery was given by John D., Or[a]mel D., and 
William P. Skinner of the Skinner family who came in 1837 from Windsor County, 
Vermont.
