I am looking for other SCOUT family researchers who may be working on Columbia County, PA family origins from about 1820 to 1850. Looking for connection to families of William Scout b. abt. 1755 Bucks Co, and wife Elizabeth Dyer. They had among the children: John Dyer Scout married to Eleanor McWilliams. John Dyer Scout died July, 1826, Liberty Twp., Columbia Co., PA. Another son, William Scout, (Jr.), and wife Mary, I believe lived in Columbia County from the census findings stated in next paragraph. Elizabeth Dyer and Wm. Scout Sr. also had daughters, Elizabeth Scout m. James Pollock; Mary Scout m. John Pollock (John & James are brothers); Charlotte Scout m. Mandis Titus; and Harriet Scout m. James McKee. The 1850 census has a Wm. Scout age 69 and Mary age 64, living in Anthony Twp., Montour County. I suspect this is William Scout Jr. (as I know that William Sr., his father, was dead by then per Estate Probate 1822 in Liberty Twp.) The others living in the Wm. Scout household on that 1850 census are Maria age 29, Cath. age 22, Wm. Scout age 21, Wm. Montague age 13, Eliz. Montague age 8, James Montague, age 11, and Christianna Montague, age 40. We have not looked for the Montague connection yet. Prior to that time in 1830 census, William Scout with a large household, is in Derry Twp., Columbia County. In 1840 census, there is a William H. Scout household in Madison Twp, Columbia County. Then in 185, we see William Scout in Anthony Twp. as mentioned. I thinking that this is not migration, as it first appears, but they are caught in the redrawing of the township lines and the county lines switching back and forth between Columbia and Montour counties. I only have current township and county maps to go on. If anyone has any affiliated SCOUT family lines and would want to exchange or share, or may have more details about the William SCOUT family, please email me.
