Bonita, I have an Elizabeth Vawter who married a John (I think) Stott in KY. Several of the Stott children, along with the Hicklin's and Denney's crossed the Trail to Oregon between 1845 and 1851. Any interest? I descend from the Hicklin's and Denneys, but two of the Denney sister's married Stotts.
