Joseph: Would you be willing to check the volumes you have to help answer a question on the Scotts? I found a list of Scott names on the Lancaster GenWeb site but there were no abstracts with them. Would you please take a look and tell me whether the person making the list simply didn't finish the transcription or if the abstracts were not given in the book. SCOTT, ABRAHAM. Mt. Joy Twp. December 15, 1775. SCOTT, JOHN. Donegal Twp. November 11, 1748. SCOTT, JOHN. Drumore Twp. December 13, 1752. SCOTT, JOSEPH. Twp. omitted. January 7, 1746/7. SCOTT, WILLIAM. Drumore Twp. May 7, 1743. SCOTT, WILLIAM. Twp. omitted. January 7, 1746/7. SCOTT, WILLIAM. Mt. Joy Twp. March 24, 1774.
