Do you know of Scogin ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Scogin. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Scogin.<1>

Our sources for Scogin (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Scogin other than they indicate that Scogin would be found somewhere in Meriwether County, Georgia.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1901 and closed  in 1905.
