It was found in digging not my writing... I have quite an interest in Captain Scott and own a biography by Reginald Pound, published in 1966. Certain family information, including various names which may be useful, is given, as follows: "No ancestor of Captain Scott has been traced with certainty beyond the third generation, all Devonshire born. In 1780, Robert Scott arrived from France to set up as a schoolmaster at Holbeton, a village of placid charm a few miles south-east of Plymouth.........The Holbeton schoolmaster had four sons, Robert being the eldest......this Robert Scott had eight children. The youngest, John, born 1830, married Plymouth-born Hannah Cuming when he was 31. She was 21, daughter of William Bennett Cuming, one of 80 surveyors then employed by Lloyd's underwriters in the ports of the UK. Both Scott parents died the following year, 1863. There were ructions about Robert Scott's will. One of his sons, General Edwin Luddington Scott persuaded two of his sisters, Mrs Preston and Mrs Harford, to join him in a lawsuit to possess the family home Outlands. William Cuming came to the rescue, settling the property on his daughter Hannah (Captain Scott's mother). John and Hannah Scott had four girls and two boys, Robert Falcon being the third child and eldest son. .... Kathleen Bruce [Scott's wife] was the daughter of the Rev Lloyd Bruce, rector of Carlton-in-Lindrick, Nottinghamshire, and Canon of York. She was the youngest of the family of eleven....Her maternal grandmother was Greek; her mother the grand-daughter of James Skene of Rubislaw. She lost her parents before she was sixteen and was taken into the Edinburgh home of her grand-uncle, William Forbes Skene, historiographer of Scotland." Regards, Mark Jones This list is adoptable.

During the war he enlisted twice, once for three months in an infantry regiment, and then re-enlisting in the Seventh Illinois Cavalry. Three or four of his brothers were also in the army and served during the war. After the war he married the daughter of Mr. Thos. LUDINGTON, who lives in Weldon, and with the exception of some three or four years that he was in the west he had lived in this county. His health failed him so that he could not follow farming for a living, so a few years ago he moved to Clinton and tried to make a living for his family by teaming. He bought a lot and built a home by borrowing from the DeWitt County Building Association, and was getting along very comfortably. He leaves a wife and six children. The oldest of the children is a young man about twenty-one years old, and the youngest is a baby in its mother’s arms. Mrs. McNier has a helpless family of small children to provide for, and the death of her husband will make her burden a heavy one to bear. Elias McNier had made application for a pension which is now pending. He was a member of Frank Lowry Post, G. A. R., and upon hearing of his death the committee of the Post made all the arrangements for the funeral. On Tuesday morning the Post escorted the remains to the railway station and placed them on the train for Weldon, where the funeral services were held on the arrival of the train.

world beyond. Elias McNier was born in Ohio forty-three years ago, but came to Illinois with his father’s family when he was but a lad. The family are old residents of this county. During the war he enlisted twice, once for three months in an infantry regiment, and then re-enlisting in the Seventh Illinois Cavalry. Three or four of his brothers were also in the army and served during the war. After the war he married the daughter of Mr. Thos. LUDINGTON, who lives in Weldon, and with the exception of some three or four years that he was in the west he had lived in this county. His health failed him so that he could not follow farming for a living, so a few years ago he moved to Clinton and tried to make a living for his family by teaming. He bought a lot and built a home by borrowing from the DeWitt County Building Association, and was getting along very comfortably. He leaves a wife and six children. The oldest of the children is a young man about twenty-one years old, and the youngest is a baby in its mother’s arms. Mrs. McNier has a helpless family of small children to provide for, and the death of her husband will make her burden a heavy one to bear. Elias McNier had made application for a pension which is now pending. He was a member of Frank Lowry Post, G. A. R., and upon hearing of his death the committee of the Post made all the arrangements for the funeral. On Tuesday morning the Post escorted the remains to the railway station and placed them on the train for Weldon, where the funeral services were held on the arrival of the train. Post Commander John ELLIS, Chaplain REED, and Mr. Frank CORKINS accompanied the family and the remains to Weldon, where Chaplain Reed conducted the funeral services.
