1897 legal notice / insolvency snippet Recovered text indicates: - Supreme Court, Oswego County notice - John W. Ladd as assignee of estate of Timothy W. Skinner, an insolvent debtor - references foreclosure / judgment context and public auction - dated around late 1897 / early 1898 Why this matters: - adds direct late-life documentary evidence for Timothy W. Skinner - suggests financial distress / insolvency in the late 1890s - may help explain later property disposition or changes in family circumstances - does not identify the house address directly, but is highly relevant to the owner's later biography and potentially to chain-of-title questions Saved image evidence: - assets/images/historic/1897-john-w-ladd-assignee-timothy-w-skinner-insolvent.png
