Scroggins, Rices, And Tarrants

Harold Rice research sent (eventually) to me...:

"I think the Scroggins, Rices, Tarrants and Ransoms moved together from Virginia to Rutherford County, North Carolina, to Greenville and Pendleton District South Carolina to Green, Franklin and Juniper Counties, Georgia, then spread out to Franklin County, Tennesse, and to Gallatin County, Illinois.  I think the Mt. Airy people could have been ours.  Mt. Airy is in Sequatchie County, Tennessee, some of which had been Marion County, which is next to Franklin County, Tennessee.

I found an Ephraim Reese in 1790 in Spartanburg County, South Carolina, and there is an Ephraim Rice in Marion County, Tennessee, in 1840, in the Pendleton Distict of South Carolina.  On its list is Tarrants.

The 1790 census of South Carolina 96th District, Greenville County lists Humphrey Scroggins, David Reese, Benjamin Tarrant and John Rice.

The 1782 Henry County, Virginia, Military records lists the following in S. Tarrant Company:  Humphrey Scroggins, Thomas Scroggins, John Farris and Joseph Rice.  Oglethorpe Company, Georgia, 1794-1800: Phillip Scroggins, Thomas Rice, Humphrey Scroggins.

Samuel Burton-1725: Arabella was the daughter of Samuel Burton of Amelia County, Virginia.

Samuel was born in neighboring Henrico Co., Va., and sometimes was found recorded in Chesterfield Co., an offshoot of Henrico Co. He was the son of John Burton, of Henrico/Chesterfield County, in liaison with Judith Nunnally.   Bristol Parish births have the following entry:

"Samuel Burton son of Judith Nunsry born Aug 8,1725"

Footnotes:

Based on numerous other records too lengthy to detail here, not the least of which are Nunnally properties near John Burton, and later Amelia County records next to Samuel Burton showing Judith (Nunnally) Worsham responsible for Richard Nunnally debts, it appears that Judith Nunnally was probably the daughter of Richard Nunnally II and Sara Akin: page 27, Our Nunnally/Nunley Family by Jean Nunley Dennison, Sept 1997.

"My father was Captain James Smith of the United States navy, a native of Richmond, Virginia, of the old cavalier stock of Smiths and Mumfords of that old dominion. My mother was Mary Boylston, a native of Springfield, Massachusetts, and of the old Puritan stock of Morgans. James Boylston, my grandfather, was a Captain in the English army and married my grandmother when the old revolutionary war was only a little unpleasantness to be settled in a few days...".

"My grandfather finally parted from his bride, fondly hoping that the unhappy war would soon cease and he would be permitted to return and claim her with the consent of all. But his young bride soon became a widow, and soon after a mother of an orphan girl. Her husband became a martyr to duty, and, after giving birth to her child, she followed him to where no ruthless wars could separate them, leaving her little girl in the care of her brother, the late General David B. Morgan, of Louisiana history, he to become her guardian and protector, the old lady having never forgiven her daughter for her secret marriage with the hated Englishman. The dying mother insisted upon depriving her of any care for or interest in her child and insisted on the brother's promise to guard and protect her little babe."

On relating the incident to the family at the close of the war, he begged to be allowed to adopt little Mary, as he was childless, in gratitude to the dead father. The family declined the honorable request. As time rolled on and peace and social intercourse had been established, my mother, then a girl of fifteen, with her uncle, visited the family of the Lord Chief Justice of Canada. While there she was struck with the resemblance of one of the portraits to that of her father in her locket ,and while comparing the two, the old Admiral Holloway [Hallowell?] of the British Navy came hobbling by and inquired why she compared them, and asked her who the locket represented. She replied, "My father." "Who was your father?" "James Boylston, sir." "Why that is James Boylston on the wall, my nephew, and looking at the locket and then at her said excitedly, "That is he and you are surely his daughter." "Explain to me child; I did not know of his marriage in America." She referred him to her Uncle David, who soon explained the matter of the private marriage with his sister and the unhappy circumstances following.
