Announcing two major breakthroughs in the Skinner Genome Project, one on each coast. Listing them in chronological order, from East Coast to West:

May 31, 2014: Christina and William Skinner proudly present their daughter Emma Louise.

Grandfather Bill and E.L.

Neither grandparent appears too displeased with this turn of events. Word has it that Emma Louise insisted the family move from Manhattan to nearby Bronxville. Father Will reported to have said she will not be allowed back into Manhattan until she is 30! Congratulations to Will and Christina. We hope Emma L will be touring the Midwest before too long.

June 6 2014: Now moving on out to California, Kate Skinner and Duncan Manning are married in San Francisco.

One happy couple

Tersh and Kathy Skinner hosted a small reception after the ceremony but have requested that everyone save the date next June 6th, 2015, for a family-wide celebration at Moone Athy Farm. Duncan and Kate met while students at St John’s College in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and shortly will be moving to the Big Apple where Duncan will be working for Standard and Poor’s Financial Services. The family wishes the new couple the very best!
