    Jacob M Scoggin would be my great great grandfather. In the 1830 census he was 42 years
    old. He died in 1836 and his wife Margaret died I think in 1848.
    His children were: Joseph Alexander, Sarah Jane, Mary Ann, John Heniger, Rufus Stephans
    and Jacob Lafayette who was my great grandfather.
    I have birth dates and marriages for all of the children if you need or want them.
