I checked on www.familysearch.com<http://www.familysearch.com/> and found a Walter Scott born in 1770 I believe it was, Father was William Scott, no Mother named. I had a William Scott Jr. who was the cautioneer at the wedding of my Agnes Elliot and Robert Thomson in Selkirk.He was supposed to be from Castleton. I have the idea that the Scotts are married into the Thomson or Elliot family somewhere, probably the Thomsons as he was the cautioneer for Robert, and Robert Thomson was from Roxburgh and Agnes Elliot from Selkirk.On familysearch there are some deaths listed for Walter Scott, but none match for sure the Walter I found born in Roberton. I guess in moving a lot it could be the same person.

Alison, Thank you for the information, sorry I haven't gotten back before now but I've been really busy in my yard.I can't see any correlation, but then if there is any connection with my Elliots and Thomsons to the Scotts it would be one to two generations back from Walter. I see he named his first son Walter also, usually the Scot naming pattern is that the first son is named for the paternal Grandfather. I did see one Walter, born I think in 1770 in Roberton to a William Scott. My William would've been a William Jr., and I am guessing born sometime between 1720 and 1730.It could be a totally different Scott family, I had figured the connection would be with the Thomsons as Willam was the cautioner for my Robert Thomson at his marrriage in 1750. I don't know the exact parish Robert was from, just that it was Roxburgh and his bride was from Selkirk.I guess it's just keep digging at those brick walls, perhaps we may connect somewhere in time. Thanks again.
