Something wrong?About this person
His career as an explorer began as early as 1761 as one of what was known as longhunters - men who undertook lengthy hunting expeditions into the Trans-Allegheny wilderness. Then working as a land agent with Richard Henderson and Daniel Boone, he explored a large part of Middle Tennessee and central Kentucky. Skaggs led a pursuit and failed attempt to apprehend America's first known serial killers, the Harpe brothers in 1799.
