A Jackson Scaggins (AFN BSQO-K6) is listed in the Latter Day Saint (LDS) database and has Milena F. Davis listed as a spouse. Another Andrew Jackson Scoggin (AFN FSQZ-B3), son of Bird Scoggin is listed in the LDS as having married a Fannie Davis (AFN FSQZ-LG) as his second wife. His first wife is listed as Sally Scoggin (AFN FSQZ-K9). The submitter for the second listing is a Clifford E. Winkler, #1 Bear Lake Estates, 300 Luman Rd., Phoenix, OR 97535.

Marriage to Sarah "Sally" Scoggins is documented in Rutherford County Marriages dated September 13, 1841. William Whitaker served as bondsman.

Jackson may be in an unmarked grave in the Davis-Greene family graveyard.

Jackson married Sarah (Sally) Scoggins on 13 Sep 1841 in Rutherford County, North Carolina. Sarah (daughter of Ezekial (Jeremiah) Scoggin and Rebecah Taylor) was born in 1825; died in Mar 1860 in Cleveland County, North Carolina. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Much of the information on the children is taken from the Ancestral Files of the LDS databank and based on the information I have is suspect. One submitter is Clifford E. Winkler, #1 Bear Lake Estates, 300 Luman Rd., Phoenix, OR 97535. For instance this man has Jackson living to the ripe old age of 149.

Larkin Dycus served as bondsman for this marriage.

Notes:

Frances apparently died in his fifties. He is listed in the 1800 Rutherford Co. Census as being 45+ with a wife also 45+ and 7 children (5 male, 2 Female).
This would put 3 males and 1 female born between 1774 and 1784, 1 male and 1 female born between 1784 and 1790, and 1 male born between 1790 and 1800. An entry in the Rutherford Co. Book of Wills (Book B) on Page 244 dated 24 October 1809 documents an agreement on the dispositioning of Frances's land to Lemuel, Burgas, Jesse, Richard, Elizabeth, and Jeremiah Scoggin and Sally Worthburn. It appears these are the seven children listed in the 1800 census, I believe Jeremiah is the oldest since he is taking custody of the two youngest (Jesse and Richard) although one of the boys would appear to be old enough to go on his own but there may have been a medical circunstance. Also Jeremiah received no land from the disposition, I believe implying that he probably was left the homeplace and the two boys were to remain there. Elizabeth is probably the youngest girl who would be between 19 and 25 in 1809. This is based on the fact that Burgas is identified as taking the lot for her. Sally Worthburn is probably the oldest daughter and had been married to a Worthburn. A Larkin Dycus is mentioned as taking two lots for himself and Sally but no indications as to who he is. He also served as bondsman for the marriage of Ezekiel to Rebecah Taylor in Jan. 1807. (Could Jemima been a Dycus?)

The IGI of the LDS database lists Ezekiel Scoggins as a son of Frances Scoggin. I believe this is possibly Jeremiah (Ezekial). Ezekial Scoggins is mentioned in Joshua Taylor's will Book D page 122 as married to Rebecca Taylor with 4 children. The IGI dates listed as abt do not match up with the census data provided for Frances and are off by a significant number of years. It also is not logical considering the document posted in the will book for Frances on 24 Oct 1809. Richard and Jesse would have been in their 50s by then if you use the IGI dates.

Frances married Jemima in 1748 in Prince George Co, Virginia. was born in 1730 in Rutherford County, North Carolina; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
