    Notes:

    The Biographical Review noted above says this about Hon. Charles N. Skinner:
    “[…] ex-judge of probate for the county of St. John, N.B. and in 1900, Recorder for the city of St. John. Born in St. John, 12 March 1833, son of Samuel Skinner, whose father came from New England to the province just before the Revolutionary war. Samuel Skinner was born in N.S. and during his active life was a leading builder and contractor of St. John. He married Phebe Sherwood, daughter of Robert Golding and grand-daughter of Captain Golding, a Loyalist who commanded a company of dragoons through the Revolution, and afterward emigrated with his family to the Maritime Provinces.
     Charles N. Skinner received his elementary education in the schools in St. John, and after studying law with Charles W. Stockton, was admitted an attorney in 1858, and in 1860 was called to the bar. He began the practice of his profession in the city of his birth, where he had since won a reputation as a keen, clear-headed lawyer, prudent in counsel and devoted to the interests of his clients. For nearly twoscore years, Mr. Skinner has been active in politics, and from 1861 to 1868 he was a member of the Legislative Assembly. In August, 1867, he was appointed Solicitor General, an office which he ably filled until March 1868, when he was made Judge of Probate for St. John County. During the same year, he was appointed Queen’s Counsel by the provincial government, and in 1883, was thus honored by the Dominion government. In 1887, Mr.Skinner, who had previously resigned his position as Judge of Probate, was elected to the Dominion Parliament, in which he served until 1892. He subsequently resumed his position as Judge of Probate, having been reappointed in June 1892, and served until January 1894, when he resigned to accept his present office of City Recorder. For several years he was a member of the St. John Council, and while occupying that position took advantage of every opportunity to advance the welfare of the city and the interests of its citizens.
     Fraternally, Mr. Skinner is a Mason and an Odd Fellow, and he is a member of the Union Club of St. John. In his religious belief he is a Baptist, and contributes generously toward the support of that denomination. In June 1896, he received the honorary degree of Doctor of Civil Law from King’s College, Windsor, N.S.”
