Skaggs Genealogy

Charles Scaggs (c. 1709–1749) was a colonial Maryland planter and the earliest documented progenitor of the branch of the Scaggs family that produced the 20th-century retail innovators behind the Scaggs, Safeway and Osco chains.

Aaron Scaggs (variants: Scraggs, Skaggs) was a small tobacco planter of Prince George’s County, Maryland . No secular record of his birth, parents, immigration, land ownership, taxable status, will, or burial has ever been discovered. He is estimated to have been born about 1684, most likely in Maryland.
