      ? James Scroggie has moved to Adrian, Michigan. Dec 19, 1911

      Jim was in Adrian, Michigan as a result of his job. He met Florence when he was at a livery stable and Florence arrived in a horse & buggy she drove to high school from their farm. Florence and her sister inherited the family farm in Adrian and Jim & Florence moved there in 1911. Jim didn't want to be a farmer and spent four years as a apprentice blacksmith. Jim, Florence and their family moved from Adrian to Vancouver, Washington in 1926 as a result of his sister Jessie's urging. There, he had a machine shop and a Texaco gas station.
