OATES., was the daughter of William Dudley SCOTT & Catherine Sarah MILES SCOTT........as yet, there is no documented proof whether Stephen Lafayette SCOTT, was the son of William L. SCOTT and Litty MILES SCOTT....or whether he was the son of William Dudley SCOTT and Catherine Sarah MILES SCOTT, (my great grandparents)........in her lifetime, I heard my mother speak fondly of her "Uncle Fate SCOTT," and my 85 year old sister remembers visiting him when she was small....Fate & Ellen SCOTT, had a daugher Ivy SCOTT, m. Millard SMITHERMAN, who was my mother's age, and our family knew her as mother's first cousin.....Ivy SCOTT had two sisters....one named Alma SCOTT, and one named Daisy SCOTT.......my mother's name was Alma Daisy SCOTT, m. William Thomas WATSON........For those reasons, I lean toward Stephen Lafayette SCOTT, being the son of William Dudley SCOTT, but like I said before there is no proof yet.
