Skip with a nickname

Hope was with her mother in Rapid City and the doctor knew that the baby would come soon. So she was not able to travel back to Wyoming. Skee was in Wyoming working in the oil fields.

Hope and Skee referred to the baby as skip (wether boy or girl). Both grandfathers wanted his name to be used so he was named Franklin/ Paul (though there is no mention of a Paul in our lineage).
