Hi Scott, do you have sources to confirm the marriage between Andrew Scoggin(s) and Melena Davis? It appears that Andrew married Nancy Hill in 1861 and they had their first child (Vance Scoggin(s)) in 1863. I have not found a source that connects him to Melena. Do you have any insight into this connection? Perhaps she was married to a different Scoggin(s)? Thanks!
