Richard was with General Robert E. Lee who (after the surrender at Appomattox) gave him a horse to ride home and use in farming. He m. Margaret Cooper, daughter of William B. Cooper, first Baptist missionary to Florida. Richard sold his farm and moved in 1882 to Boston, GA where his descendants lived late in the 20th century. James M. Scruggs (25 Sloop Drive, Cocoa Beach, FL 32931) wrote 14 Feb 2000 for an Internet Web site (http://boards.ancestry.com) message board for Jefferson Co., FL: The early 70s were happy times for the Scruggs families along the country road between Aucilla and Drifton with upwards of 20 young cousins living in a 3 mile stretch, plus uncles and aunts galore! Needless to say there were many clan gatherings for chicken pilaus, peanut boilings, cane grindings, etc. at the 'homeplace' of patriarch Wm H., and monthly Sunday services at Ebenezer found the Scruggs families joining with the Cooper and neighboring families for periodic baptisms and dinner-on-the-ground, plus the annual homecomings. With one grandfather being the Pastor and the other Church Clerk and Deacon, Annie Pauline would write years later (1932-36) of her 'rememberances' as a young girl (age <9). Verbatim extracts from her pencilled notes give the following firsthand account: 'Another memorie dear as the days go by is the memory of an old church house that stood by a roadside...a door North for the men, South for the ladies, and afterward the colored join in. With its oak grove on the North, South the graveyard, East downhill the old spring, happy memories then as each waited to drink for many came long distances. As a child we drove 9 miles once each month. Church going then everybody seemed to enjoy & look with pleasure. Preachers when I first remember wore tall silk hats. The church were lited with candles. Each person carried their own hymnal...the minister lined each verse. In those days the senior Deacon was the Moderator and Conference was held on Saturday. The men entered and sat on one side and the ladies on another. Men carried their guns to church for safety in the days of the Indians, I was told. My memory goes back when a child I heard of those old pioneer days & how ministers traveled from place to place preaching Gods Word in homes or any place convenient, planting the seed of Gods Word unto Salvation in a thinly settled community. The history of the pioneer day filled with danger & hardship in many way are still very dear to my memory for I am a Grandchild of one of those Ministers that traveled horse back with saddlebags filled with Bibles catecism and song book. Another memory is sweet to me of this Grandparent in family life that had to still have supream sway over my life... How often as a small child have I walked beside him holding my hand on one side and his younger daughter the other, singing those songs of salvation & redemption.....In 1925 I visited the church for the first time in 35 years and there I found the same pews that my father & mother sat and their eight children they took with them. Where I first went to sabath school & studied what was called catecism simple & easy to learn & remember and as I sat in the pew where I sat with my mother memories came to me how we sat through sermons two hours at a time without a wiggle without a squirm daring to look around. Looking forward all the time for preaching was not a sight seeing occasion in those days. It was to listen, learn and worship God & his son our Savior. As I sat there memory carried me back 55 years. Oh can I ever forget? Memories that still linger of long ago....'. In the late 1870s, it appears that Richard was looking to relocate as he began to sell/mortgage his holdings. His father-in-law, Wm B. Cooper, died in 1878 and Ann G., his ailing widow and Administrix of his estate, conveyed her management responsibilities to Richard via a Power of Attorney in March, 1880. Ann G. died in December, 1881 after awarding Guardianship of her two minor children to another son-in-law, R.R. Beville (who also administered her estate) indicating that Richard was in the process of relocating at that time. Land records show that Richard sold 220 acres of his Jefferson County land in January, 1882 and purchased 100 acres just outside Boston, Thomas County, Georgia in February, 1883, indicating that he probably moved his family there sometime in 1882. His farm operations at Boston are unknown, however the family was saddened with the death of one child in Jul 1883, though another was born two months later of that year. This might have prompted a move to town indicated by his purchase of a 1 acre town lot in February, 1884; however, another child died of scalding a short while later, plus his wife Margaretta died of pneumonia on January 20, 1885. This must have posed a real challenge to the oldest child Annie Pauline at age 14 1/2 to be surrogate mother to five younger siblings, including a 15 month old infant. Little wonder then that during later years, her brothers would seek her out as if visiting their mother. It can only be surmised that Richard and some of the older children remained in the Boston area to tend the farm for the next 4-5 years, while the younger ones went to the care of relatives in Jefferson County about 25 miles to the south. He sold the town lot in October, 1886, so likely he moved the remnants of the family back to whatever shelter existed on the farm for the remainder of their stay in the Boston area. Richard returned to Jefferson County for good in 1889 since records show him selling his Boston acreage that year, plus he was co-executor of his fathers will following his death in October. Land tax receipts show him paying the taxes for years 1890-1898 on the family land willed by his father to heirs of his youngest daughter Rebecca M. (Scruggs) Frizzelle, indicating that Richard had renewed farming operations back on the old homestead, albeit on different land. The 1890s also saw the inevitable breakup of the family unit with the dispersal of his older children, Pauline to Alachua County in 1890 working as a midwife, and Wm Richard to Texas in 1898 where he joined the 1st Regmt, Texas Infantry for service in the Spanish-American War. By the 1900 Census, Richard had left Jefferson County and was boarding in High Springs, Alachua County, working as a grocer; Pauline, now married with family, was still in Alachua County; Wm Richard had completed his Army enlistment and, in company with his brother Arthur Jeter, was working as a prison guard in Citrus County; whereabouts of the other children being unknown. Before leaving Jefferson County, Richard applied for a Confederate pension in 1897, citing service-connected disabilities (Dyspnea) as the cause of his failing health. However, bureaucratic red tape delayed the request, causing him to submit again in 1902 from Alachua County. By 1903, Richard was living with son Bela M. in Boardman, Marion County, where he died on January 6, 1903, just days short of age 70. Nigh onto 3 years after his death, the Board of Pensions, Tallahassee, Florida would issue a response dtd October 1, 1905 citing 'I have the honor to inform you that the Board has considered your pension application and that it was disallowed, as the physician does not testify that by reason of age you are unable to provide a living.' Richards final resting place is unknown, though its believed to be in the Micanopy area. However, in 1996 a VA-provided Memorial marker commemorating his Confederate service was installed in the Scruggs Family Cemetery, Jefferson County, Florida located on land he grew up on. Margarettas resting place (and their 2 young children) is believed to be in the City Cemetery, Boston, Georgia and was marked by her surviving grandchildren in 1995, 110 years after her death.
