WOW! Wonder what her three eldest children did to gain their Mother's disfavor -- marry?? Mary Scott is Mary "Polly" Coggin, wife of Robert Scott. She is the daughter of John Coggin and wife Sarah (Bowland) Coggin. Sister to my husband's 4X Great-grandmother, Mary Elizabeth "Eliza" Coggin who married William Henry Pennington.
