    • It is with a great deal of gratitude that we thank Evelyn Skinner for finally tying our Eslingers into the rest of the Eslinger family. We had Andrew, father of Carole's great-grandfather John, as well as Andrew Jackson, son of Andrew in our family tree -- we just weren't certain that they were one in the same. Thanks Evelyn!
