Charlie somewhere I saved the data you sent.  Is the Scott dna on FTdna site?  I am going to up the markers and see what happens I am also going to ask another cousin to do the test.  **************************** I just read the Robert Scott's that are in "The Kentucky Gazette 1801-1820". I have a feeling that the Robert Scott in Jassamine County may be mine.  NO facts so looking for them.  The Scott list I have not seen for some time so if you have it you may add this letter to that list in case anyone has these in their family.  Twice there is implications that Robert Scott has a father John Scott.  That would make sense then for John Cornelius Scott to have a John Scott.  Also there is reference to a Catholic Priest twice along with Robert Scott's name but other ministers also.  Robert pages 36, 66, 96, 120, 151, 188, 263, 267 277   Robt 296. Since Robert had son around 1817-1818 depending on tombstone and family data :>) , the Robert whom died prior to 1817 can not be father.  One down but which one.  :>) Next time at library I will gather data on the JOHN SCOTT 's mentioned in book. pg 36 Volume  XV11, number 898  tues 29 Nov 1803 Thomas M Green, living near Greenville in Jefferson County of the Mississippi Territory, regarding a runaway slave named Charles, formerly the property of Thomas B Scott and  Robert Scott of Jassamine County where his wife and children still live. ?? the wife and children reference is to Mr. Green?? 66 I missed copying   :<(  Does someone have? 96pg Vol XX No 1134  Tuesday 21 July 1807 Robert Scott "at Shawnee Town on the Indian side about nine miles from the mouth of the Saline Creek" on his way to Natchez, regarding runaway slave named Billy, formerly the property of Waller Overton near Lexington.  Deliver to "my father ".
