I dont know of anyone in the family suffering from CMT but I suppose it could skip generations, could it?

The only hereditary thing in my family is cataracts.
CMT does not skip generations. Someone can have symptoms that aren't that evident but they are still able to pass it on. It also could be chocked up to something else. There are rare occasions where there is a mutation.
