Notes
a. Note:   [rscrbnr.ged] John (40-ii, 122) was known as "Bud John" because of the way he demonstrated how to trap partridges. He would set a trap, put it on a log and then say, "The partridge will come along and, bud, bud, bud," putting his finger on the log as he spoke. When he got to the trap he would put his finger in it, almost losing the finger in the process. John and Elizabeth faced tragedy after tragedy in their lifetime. On 26 October 1843 their six-year-old daughter, Annis, burned to death when her clothing somehow caught fire. Four years later, one of the twins, Henrietta (now aged five), fell into the fireplace and died on 12 December 1847. On 24 September 1862 the other twin, Georgianna, died at age 20. Two years later, during the Civil War, their son, Jackson, died in New Orleans on 2 May 1864. Jackson's wife, Ruth, gave birth to a son just two days later, but that infant died only 12 days after birth. John and Elizabeth are buried in Scribner Hill Cemetery, Upper Yard. Nearby are the graves of Jackson's infant son and Georgianna, and a monument to Jackson, who was buried in Louisiana.
