Dunklin says (p.23): HENERY SCRUGGS (ref I.)," son of Richard Scruggs, Gentleman, of New Kent County, Virginia, was married in St. Peter's Parish January 25, 1685-6, to Anne Grose." Their children are listed as Henry, John, Richard, Thomas, Edward, Mary, Anne. He is also mentioned on p.22, 24, 25.

It was originally in Bedford County (Virginia). After the division of Bedford and Franklin Counties … “Scruggs” became situated in the northern part of Franklin County, two miles from the present Bedford County line. The town of “Scruggs” in Cole County, Missouri, is situated near Jefferson City, the State Capitol.

HISTORY: (Dunklin, p.16) Towns Named "Scruggs", Bedford County, Virginia. Cole County, Missouri
Bedford County was formed in 1753 out of Lunenburg and was named for the fourth Duke of Bedford. It comprised what is known as Bedford, Campbell and a part of Franklin Countries.
Campbell County was cut from Bedford County on the southeast in 1781, and subsequently, in 1784, the County of Franklin was cut on the south side.
The town of "Scruggs" was originially in Bedford County, and was named in honor of that branch of the Scruggs family that settled there. After the division of Bedford and Franklin Counties, however, "SCRUGGS" became situated in the northern part of Franklin County, two miles from the present Bedford County line. The town of "SCRUGGS" in Cole County, Missouri, is isutated near Jefferson City, the State Capitol."

HISTORY: THOMAS SCRUGGS (reference I.4), "son of Henry Scruggs by his wife Anne Grose, was bom in New Kent County, Virginia. He married twice, firstly Mitchell, a sister of Valentine Mitchell. He married secondly Juday Buford. Thomas Scruggs moved from New Kent County to Buckingham County and settled just prior to his death in Cumberland, where his will was dated April 26, 1788, in which he mentions his wife, his son Drury and his grandson Finch Scruggs, and 'my other children.' The will is signed, sealed and delivered in the presence of Thomas Scrugs [sic], Obedier Scrugs [sic], William Anderson." (Dunklin, p.25; See also p.23.)

Dunklin does not distinguish which wife had the 5 children mentioned by Dunklin.

Note: Dunklin and other researchers have posited that Thomas was married a second time, to “Juday Buford” and may have had one son by her. Several researchers on ancestry.com posit that they married on March 1, 1787; he would have been around 93 years of age. It seems to me to be suspicious that his grandson, Thomas3, married Judith Buford on the same day. This second marriage of Thomas1 needs more research.
