Hi. I'm new to this list and looking for the family of John W. Scott (b. 1844 Patrick Co.) and Sarah Jane Massey (b. 1838 Patrick Co.). Their children were John Wellington Scott (d. 1903 in Mt. Airy), Mollie J. (m. J.R. Gwynn of Surry Co.), DeSoto, Sally & Woot "Jerry". I think they moved to Surry Co from Patrick Co in the very early 1900's. I have no proof that they were all in Surry Co, but I believe that John Wellington Scott & DeSoto Scott were buried together (she d. 1908) (someone sent me a reference to a John W. & DeSoto Scott who are buried together, but he didn't know the cemetery name - the dates for John W. are correct however) and I know that he was buried in Surry Co. because my grandparents found his grave years ago - again, no cemetery name. DeSoto was unmarried, so I am theorizing that she would not have been in Surry Co. after her brother died unless someone else in her family was there. John Wellington's wife (Martha "Mattie" Foley) was newly pregnant (just a few weeks) with their first child (Vivian Wellington Scott - my grandfather) when he died and Mattie did not move back to Patrick Co (where she had lots of family) or to Ohio (where her parents were) until after the birth. Again, a theory, but I can't imagine that she wouldn't have moved in with family during her first pregnancy. So, I really believe that her in-laws ( her mother-in-law was also her aunt), the John W. Scott family, was in Surry Co also. This is difficult to keep track of and I apologize for that. There's no good way to word it! Kathy Kuzas
