Title: Aaron Skuse
Post by: Helina on Monday 15 April 19 06:26 BST (UK)
Cannot find Aaron Skuse after 1891, may of gone to the USA  alot of American entries on ancestry that I do not have access to.

Aaron Skuse (surname changes to Scuse at times) born 1874 Bristol Gloucestershire, parents Aaron and Caroline Skuse. Siblings;
Kezia Louisa 1865-1866
Caroline 1868-1868
Florence Kezia 1869-1916
Louisa b 1876
Sarah Jane b 1879 Machen, Monmouthshire, Wales
Rosanna b 1882 Machen, Monmouthshire, Wales

The older children were born in Bristol.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Helena,

Just to mention, in case it may be of interest to you but of course the unusual name may just be coincidence -  there were other Skuse family in Pennsylvania, one of those was George Skuse and Mary Jane nee Harding/Harden Skuse - On the FIND A GRAVE entry for George Skuse Snr. 1859 - 1922 - George born Frenchay South Gloucestershire. Father James Skuse.
