Individual Note:
"I have some info that may clear up why some of the Scalf family tree is so confusing. I have been doing research on John Samuel Scalf, Mar. 25, 1888-Nov. 21, 1963. Full name:John Samuel Micheal July Harrison Jerimiah Scalf. John was born in the Watauga area of Washington Co., Tenn. (Turkey Town community). He was born as a Slagle and for reasons unknown went to live with a Scalf family at a very young age. Both families lived in the same area. John took on the name Scalf but I do not believe this was a legal adoption. He married Amanda Louise Thomas,(nicknames Lula or Red),12-15-1900, 2-21-1947, from Bristol, Tenn. John and Lula had 11 children, two of which are still living. Frank, John, Mildred and Betty Joe all died at very young ages. Mildred and Frank were still born. Betty joe died right after birth, Sept. 9, 1931 and John died at the age of 9. All are buried in the Turkey Town cemetery (Scalf Family cemetery). The names of the remaining children are as follows (some buried there as well). Bobby Eugene Scalf, Carl Andrew Scalf, James Riley Scalf, Florence Nightingale Scalf,Cook, Peggy Jean Scalf,Greer, Helen Marie Scalf,Goforth,, Gladys Irene Scalf,Elkins. The only siblings I have are believed to be Scalf children, not Slagles, although they could be other children raised by Scalfs. Pete and Jim Scalf both were baptist preacher and preached from horse back through the community. Lizzy Scalf,McDonald, Martha Scalf,Lowdy, Molly Scalf,Nidifer. The only info I have on his parents is his mothers name, Mary Emmitt. It is not known if this was the Scalf mother who raised him or the Slagle mother who gave birth to him. John was a bootlegger and spent time in prison for this."

The date she gave is within two weeks of the date Cindy provided for John Samuel Scalf. Additionally, the married names Cindy provided for Martha and Molly match those on record for Mary Emmert's daughters.
