Ellen Temple Skeen Fisher Birth: May 11, 1905 West Virginia, USA Death: Oct. 19, 1993 Kenna Jackson County West Virginia, USA Aunt Ellen, was a sweet person.She attended Warren Chapel Church, and quilted at Watts chapel Church Ladies Aid. She was faithful to attend, even if she had to walk. They lived in an old house, before they built their new one. They said Uncle Oke played the violen and Aunt Ellen would dance, and the whole house would shake. She would churn her butter milk and make butter and cottage cheese..Boy, it sure was good..I use to love to help her churn. She like to squirrel hunt, and was good at it. We would all meet over at Kentuck, every November, for GREAT Grampa Skeens birthday party. We always had lots of food, and lots of fun..We would play games with Aunt AZUBAH, and Aunt Dona, and Clement was always playing their tricks on everyone..I think everyone has walked through many cow pattys, because of Uncle Clement..All the brothers and sisters and husbands and wifes are together again. So bid you farewell, until we meet again. Family links: Parents: Adam Webster Skeen (1876 - 1965) Rebecca Jane Kerns Skeen (1874 - 1928) Spouse: Okey Jacob Fisher (1900 - 2003) Children: Orva W.
