It helps to look at the birth and death dates of the listed mothers. As a reminder, Humphrey John Scroggin was born in 1794, per this profile.

Minnie Estell Scroggins is listed as being born in 1758 and dying in 1777. So assuming that info is correct, and that Humphrey's birth date is correct, we can rule her out.

Wife 2 S Scroggins is listed as being born in 1733 and dying in 1814. So she could be the answer -- but that would make her 61 at the time of Humphrey's birth. It would also make her 26 years older than her husband, which would be unusual. So we have multiple red flags there.

Since none of these profiles have real records cited, including George S. Scroggins (the listed father), this will probably take going through records. Which records have you searched so far? That will help the rest of us narrow down where to look.

Thank you, Private User!
I am hopeful the managers and people who know the line will get her in order
