Notes for Elizabeth Scroggins
While pregnent with her last child they said she used to go to a small bush growing in the corner of the yard and kneel to pray that when she died for God to take her child also. Once the child was born and she was able to get out of bed she repeated the procedure often.
After a short time she took sick again. Hannah Tabitha was taking care of the baby and she put him down in seemingly perfect health. As Lizzie began to die Hannah went to the child and he was drawing his last breath.
The cause of Lizzie's death is unknown but she appeared to be carrying another unborn child.
