Biography

Judith Norene Scroggins was a secretary at an NAACP branch office in Cincinnati, born about 1942 and traveled from Nashville to Jackson by Greyhound and was arrested on July 29, 1961 — one of the arrests recorded by the Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission and preserved in the Civil Rights Digital Library. The catalog establishes the arrest, the participation, and the individually identified police photograph, but not the court disposition, any transfer to Parchman, or the physical release date; those fields are unresolved pending county-jail, court, or penitentiary records.
