A little about myself: My name is Beverly Kaye Manning Skoff. I live in Camanche, Clinton Co., Iowa, with my husband Donald Skoff. We have 3 great children, Diane, LuAnne & Mike & 5 beautiful grandchildren, Ashley, Taylor, Alexander, Molly, Rachel.

I was born & raised in rural Maquoketa, Jackson Co., Iowa. I attended small rural one room grade schools with grades 1-8 in each school. I graduated from Maquoketa High School in 1958. February 6, 1960, I married my great husband, Don Skoff I ran a day care in my home for the past 30 years loving over 150 children. We own a Motel which keeps me young.

My grandfather, Harvey Manning was a farmer. My grandmother and Harvey's wife was Cora Arterberry Manning. I started Genealogy in 1995 & love it My cousin Lois Arterberry Garien told me my great-grandfather Alexander Arterberry's fathers name was Bennett Arterberry. My cousin Candy Manning Grandick & I starated going to Davenport to the LDS Church to rent & view films on census, etc. We found a lot of Arterberrys & Collected all of the information. I found a Nova Lemon who wrote a book on Bennett Arterberry & purchased the book. I was hooked.

I'm Pushy! I find other Arterberrys and contact them. I collect everything I can about them and have found some pretty interesting connections! We all gain! I have helped many people to find their connections in our Arterberry family...I have found many connections for our files.
