This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Scott Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/5R.2ADI/1184.1 Message Board Post: Could your family have come from Kentucky? Could they possibly have moved to Missouri? What year were they born or married? When were they killed? The only way to place them would be to know the year and compare that to a US events timeline. There was a removal of Free Blacks and Native Americans from Platte Missouri in 1859 heading south to Florida where some people were killed along the way. Your Scott family may have been related to the Kentucky Scotts.
