Haskell Family History
My Haskell family came from Winchester, Kansas just west of Leavenworth. The William and Susan Megelmre Haskell family built a two story farm house north of town and raised their family there. William was born to Jacob Haskell and Mary Sharp. The 1850 census indicates that Mary was the head of the household, and their birth place as Tennessee. William had two sisters Sarah and Amanda. I have been unable to locate any information about Jacob Haskell (reason he is not with the family, place or date of death etc.). Mary Haskell was born to John Sharp and Rebecca Burton. The Sharp's settled in Platte Co., Missouri.
