Lillie was my great grandmother (husbands name Frank Monroe Allen), Lizzie was her sister. I've been told that the Scroggin line goes back to Maryland in 1660. I'm trying to find out the SCROGGIN parents. Any help would be appreciated.

SCROGGIN-RICE VA>GA>TA>IL

KimEMyers — 2007-11-21 22:48:34Z

Seeking information on the Rice and Scroggin/s families: Jackson County Georgia 1799 Tax List:

Benjamin and David Rice and Chatham(Chattin Doggett) Scroggin (son of Humphrey Scroggin Sr. of VA). Chattin Doggett Scroggin remains in Jackson County Georgia where he dies in 1862.

Another Benjamin Rice, born in Georgia ca 1796, marries Margaret Scroggin, daughter of Humphrey Scroggin Jr. approximately 1812 in Tennessee. Benjamin buys property in Gallatin County Illinois in April of 1819.

Is this Benjamin the son of either Benjamin or David Rice located in Jackson County Georgia in 1799?

Also, Ransom Scroggin Rice is born in Georgia in approximately 1800. I believe Benjamin and Ransom Scroggin are brothers. Who was Ransom Scroggin Rice named for?

Was there an earlier marriage between the Rice and Scroggin families or was the name granted because of close personal relationships between the two families? He is the only Rice in the 1830 Franklin County Tennessee Census.

Humphrey Scroggin, Jr is in Franklin County Tennessee in 1812 and Gallatin County Illinois in 1818.

Humphrey Scroggin, Sr. dies in Clarke County Georgia in 1821.

Young Benjamin Rice and Humphrey Scroggins, Jr. have property very close to eachother in 1819 in Gallatin County Illinois.

Discount certificates available on DNA study!

2006-12-06 14:36:43Z

I have just been informed by the folks at Family Tree DNA that they will provide some discount certificates to a few people who might consider joining the study before the end of the year. I can cut the cost by 50% or so as I understand it (I will look deeper as to the details when I get some inquiries). Unfortunatly it will not apply to those interesed in 'upgrading'. Please drop me a line if you know of a direct male decendant that might be willing.

It is believed that her father was Arthur Scroggin,mother was Emily Rigg Scroggin and that she was married to a James Ducey or Ducy who is believed to have been killed in an auto accident.

Her brother was Hubert, he died in 1994, she may have had a sister by the married name of Marjorie Mitchell and another brother James.

Just found Mary's paper's her birth date is either aug or nov 24, 1843. She died in Summer County, Kansas. Her parents are Leonard Scroggin and Levinia Buckles. The sheet says she had three children but only one is listed - Leonard.

Re: Willliam H.Gasaway of Logan County, Illinois

2005-11-29 00:44:14Z

The only information I have on Mary E. Scroggin is this....... she was born 1843 and died 8/10/1876. She married William Gosaway (could be Gasaway - writing is difficult) They married on 9/10/1863 and had 3 children.

Good morning,
It seems I have become the admistrator at our surname project at Family Tree DNA and I can send out invitations from our webpage to anyone who might want to join. It will take me a while to get the whole project set up but we are up an running.
http://www.familytreedna.com/
The advantage is that we now qualify for a savings of about 1/3ed. There are several tests but the ones we are most interested in are the 'y' chromosome tests that range from about $100 to $212. I am ordering the larger "37 marker" test. I feel an obligation as an instigator in this to 'bite the bullet'. The website at FTDNA can fill you in on the details.
What we are looking for is males from various lines to submit tests so that we can tie things together. It would not do much good for two cousins that KNEW they were related to submit as that would be a duplication.
There is a good chance that we will be able to tie into George Scoggin who immigrated in the 1650s from England or one of the other early immigrants. We are also going to try to get lines from England and Scandinavia to join in as it seems likely that somewhere way back there that's where we came from.
Let me know if there is anyone I should send the invitation to.
Thanks again
Patrick Scoggin

Did you get any repllies to your inquiry about William H Gasaway, My Grandmother , my Mothers Mother was Lora Jane Gasaway. She married a William Alexander Wilson. She passed a way from breast cancer in Fargo NorthDakota hospital. I went to visit her while she was at Mayo Hospital in Rochester, Minnesota.
I remember visiting her home in Mitchell South Dakota. I too am looking for information about her father William Gasaway and her husband, William Wilson. Do you have any information that you are willing to share with me. Sincerely, Elaine, William Gasaways great great grandaughter.

Scroggin DNA study underway. Participants wanted.

2005-08-16 19:25:17Z

DNA genealogy is proven and pretty fantastic. The privacy issues are well addressed and will in no way be a concern for participants. AND there is a price (1/3 savings) break if we do it as a Family Name Project starting with at least 6 participants.
I have contacted a representative at Family Tree DNA to start the project. There may actually already be one tested person. If so that means we just need four more with me as the fifth.
Because in my own tree I have relatives with variant spellings I am suggesting we include in the study the following: Scoggin/Scoggins/Scroggin/Scroggins. Should there be others?
The cost vary from 229$ for the 37 marker test, about 150$ for the 25 marker test and about 100$ for the 12 marker test. (These are the discount pricings for members of a group as I understand it.) Obviously the more markers the more specific the information. I am going to start things off with the 37 marker test but am not sure others need to do the same.
If you are curious about how these things work I have found a few family DNA sites on line that people have set up that I think are exemplary and a model for what I hope to do. For a look visit:
http://blairgenealogy.com/dna/results.html
or try http://www.davenportdna.com/results.htm
Look around the sites as they have pretty good explanations of various issues on other pages.
For general info at the test site visit:
http://www.familytreedna.com/
I chose Family Tree DNA mostly because it seems to be the most frequently used thus most likely to find matches. I am not sure what it would take to compare results from other labs to those from this one but I do think that is doable.
I look forward to hearing from anyone that might have an interest in this project.

Re: Mary Elizabeth Scroggin b.1862

2002-06-23 18:20:38Z

Hi,

Mary Scroggin was my grandmother. I am the son of Charles Tucker. My sister is Ruth Skaggs of Harlingen. I live in Houston. I do not know much about Mary Scroggin. I think that I know where she is buried. I was born a few months after Mr. Tucker died. He was living with my parents. I knew a few of my father's sisters. My sister is older than I am. She knew my grandfather. She may have more information on my father's sisters. Neither my father nor Lora seemed to know much about their grandparents.

My father also had a sister named Myrtle. She was younger.

What is your linage?

Yours,

Charles Tucker

Hi,
I am trying to find information about Sam Smith and Belle Scroggin Smith.
My name is Linda Smith Kunze. My ex-father-in-law was Sam Smith. The afore mentioned Sam Smith and Belle were his parents. My father-in-law did not know his mom or dad. His mom died giving birth and his dad gave him to C. T. Tucker to raise. I know that this is the same family because my Sam (who is deceased) has a list of all of the people listed in your query. I'm trying to put together a family tree for my ex-husband and our daughters and would appreciate any information I can find. Please email me if you know anything. We know nothing about Sam and Belle except that Mary Elizabeth and Belle were sisters and full blooded Irish.
thanks,
Linda

I came across your message and I wanted to know if our William H. is the same. Mine was born Jan.1841 and died Jan. 18, 1864 at Point Lookout. He enlisted in the Company E, 15th Ala. Any connection? His father was John Thomas Scoggin and his mother was Mary Ann. Anything? Hope to hear from you soon.
