    An applicant for membership in the Daughters of Founders and Patriots of America, stated that George Scrogin, Jr. married (1) Elizabeth Warren, daughter of Thomas Warren and Mary Barton, by whom he had children, including Humphrey Scrogin (Scroggin) who was born about 1730 in William and Mary Parish, Charles County, Maryland. He married Margaret Doggett (who was born in Lancaster County, Virginia, about 1734 and died in Tennessee about 1814) between 1755 and 1758, and died in Tennessee about 1821. The applicant qualified for membership against the Revolutionary War service of Humphrey Scroggin, Jr. who was born in Bloomfield Parish, Culpeper County, Virginia, about 1764, married Sarah Kirby in Pittsylvania County, Virginia, about 1770; and died at Mt. Pulaski, Logan County, Illinois, in 1837. [National Society, Daughters of Founders and Patriots of America, National No. 4229, Alice Katherine Scroggin Anderson McNeely (Mrs. George Hummel McNeely, Jr.), Bryn Mawr, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, 1942; daughter of Andrew Logan Anderson and Edna Katherine Scroggin.]

    The applicant submitted that her 7th generation [George Scrogin, Jr.] was substantiated by Charles County, Maryland, Liber P, No. 3, folio 567, noting that, "In the records of Chas. Co. there is an abundance of strong conclusive proof beyond a reasonable doubt, that Elizabeth Warren was a former wife & the mother of the children, being the dau. of Thos. Warren & Mary Barton, m. abt. 1722-3 to Geo. Scroggin. Charity - prob. Charity Theobald spinster m. 1750-53 dau. of John Theobald and Mary Fendall. Charity under age of 16, 1712." The cryptic statement about Charity pertains to the second wife of George Scrogin, Jr., who died in William and Mary Parish after 18 May 1769 and before 07 October 1771. His wife Charity died after 07 October 1771.

    Perhaps George Scrogin, Jr. (B4) learned to be a shoemaker when he was indentured to Thomas Plunkett. He was in that trade in 1734. In her will, dated 05 May 1734 and proved on 17 May 1734, Sina Vincent (Vinson), widow of Charles County, designated that her 13-year-old son Nathan be bound either to George Scrogin to learn the shoemaker?s trade or to Mark Penn to learn the smith?s trade. [The Maryland Calendar of Wills, Volume VII, Liber 21, folio 66.] Sina Vincent was a daughter of John Decrogoes. A Charles County probate record for John Decrogoes (Decregoes) on 29 April 1719 mentions John Vincent and Sina Vincent, identifying Sina as the daughter and only surviving relative of the deceased. [Maryland Genealogical Society Bulletin, Volume 25,
    Number 1, Maryland Genealogical Society, Baltimore, 1984, Charles County Probate Records, Inventories, Part I.] John Scrogin (B2) bought land in Charles County from William Decrogoes in 1722.
