  • Notes 
    • Research note: A family tree on familysearch.org says she was born in 1767. Another family tree on ancestry.com has birthdate as 1776; that would make her just 11-12 when she got married. (jan19,2016, ts)

      HISTORY: (Dunklin. p. 42) THOMAS SCRUGGS (reference I.4.3.3), "second son of Thomas Scruggs ... married March 1, 1787 (by the Rev. Jeremiah Hatcher), Judith Buford, the daughter of Captain James Buford and Elizabeth Bramlett, and a sister of Elizabeth Buford, who had married William Scruggs."

      MARRIAGE 1787: on Virginia, Marriages 1785-1940. Thomas Scruggs married Judith Buford in 1787 in Virginia.

      Note: One Ancestry Family Tree (Marc Taylor Family Tree, accessed March 29, 2020) says she died in 1854. It references "Kentucky, Death Records, 1852-1965", Film 994054, 526 pages. It is not indexed, but it says the following:
      - a female Scruggs, a widow, 88 years old, b in Virginia, residing in Scott Co, KY, daughter of xx & Eliza Buford, died in Scott County, Ky possibly on Dec. 26?, cause of Death - apoplexy. Although it does not name this person, the stats fit Judith Scruggs, née Buford. p. 291. (The deaths in Scott County in 1854 are on pages 289-294.)
