Looking for information about
Henry Skilton, Surgeon and Chaplain
who served in place of his son Avery.
He entered from Woodbury, Connecticut
about the time of the Battle of Bunker Hill.
Perhaps he may have served under the name of Avery Skilton (whom he replaced as was common practice at that time for one to substitute for another.)His first service was at Roxbury Neck, Massachusetts
