I'm trying to locate any relatives of a small family named SCOTT , from the county of Tyrone in Northern Ireland .Hugh Scott married Jane Kelly in a Armagh church around 1834,35,36. They had a daughter named Sarah Scott who was born in 1836 in Caledon, Tyrone, NI.I don't know when they arrived in Canada , but I do know she married in 1854 in Hamilton, Ontario. She married a Michael Brennen , who became a prominent businessman in the Lumber business.They had eleven children .Any Scotts with ancesters from Northern Ireland , please email me at [email protected]

Hi SCOTT FAMILY researchers: I am still looking for James Thomas SCOTT b/1802 Lincoln Co., NC. Parents unknown. Siblings unknown. His family moved to Overton Co., TN before 1820 where he "grew up." He had two children by his first wife. One child died before 1840 and the other, Nancy SCOTT, married George Hill and lived on Crow Creek, Franklin Co., TN in 1840. His second wife (possibly Susan or Elizabeth) was living near her father, William WILKINSON, in Franklin Co., TN in 1840. James Thomas (or Thomas James) SCOTT was living in Davidson Co., TN in 1840 when he went to prison for 5 years for "negro stealing." In his court records, he used the name Thomas Scott. In his prison records he used the name James Scott. In these prison records, he listed uncles Perry HILL of Franklin co., TN, and two uncles in Hardeman Co., TN named John PILES/PYLES and Quiller/Aquilla NEARING (or NEARN). POSSIBILITIES: (1) Scott families living in Lincoln Co., NC in 1800 were Margaret SCOTT, widow of William SCOTT. They had a son named William that may have married Elizabeth DAVIS in 1790 in Lincoln Co., NC. It is possible that this William HILL and Elizabeth Davis HILL were the parents of James Thomas Scott b/1802. (3) Scott families living in Overton Co., NC in 1820 (James would have been 18) were Edward SCOTT, Jesse SCOTT, and Samuel SCOTT. (3) A James T. SCOTT is shown in the 1830 census of Hardeman Co., TN (born between 1800/1810). This James SCOTT is a piece of the puzzle that, if solved, could be a major breakthrough in my 30+ years of research. So far I have hit a dead-end and desperately need help. -- E.

Dorothy, If you can, would you check your quarterlies for the name of Abraham SCOTT. He was born in 1753 in MD, fought in the Rev. War and came to Greene, Co. PA (Cumberland Twp.) where he died in 1845. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much. Marian

Sharyn /Wisely Anderson need your E-Mail address. Dorothy Scott Muirhead

John S. Scott, born 6-1829 in Ohio. Died 5-2-1904 in Huntington Co., IN. Married Jemima Chesnut in Huntington Co., IN in 1851. Was told (no proof) that his father was John Scott, born in South Carolina. Married 5-3-1826 in Preble Co.,OH to Elizabeth Atwood, born in TN. Any information about John S. Scott's parents, siblings, or children would be greatly appreciated. Ken Brook

Dear Listers G grandma Emma SCOTT was born to Mary Ann Scott at Bank Hill in the parish of Farlam July 1838.Emma was illegit and mother's occupation was innkeeper. (from parish reg) I feel Mary Ann may have come from the next parish of Brampton but until I have found her in 1851 census will not know for sure. Would love to hear from anyone else researching this lady Regards Jean

This got left off because I do not know what I am doing. > <grin> Thanks for putting up with my muddle. Cheers, Rea I wonder if this Andrew could be the Andrew Scott I'm looking for? I have scant information--that Andrew was b. in Scotland, date unknown; had a son Arthur b. in PA in 1777, and relocated to KY in 1782. Arthur had a son Andrew b. 1803 in Bourbon Co, KY. That second Andrew is my g-g-g-grandfather. I would really like to locate information on his father's & grandfather's families--I don't even have wives' names for them. If anybody thinks they see a connection, give me a shout--this is one of my brick walls. *CERIDWEN*

Dorothy, Could you check Quarterlies for any mention of a Joseph Scott in Southwest Virginia (Giles, Botetourt,Montgomery Counties) of WV(Hardy,Harrison,Raleigh Counties) from post Revolutionary War to about 1810? Also, any mention of ANY Henry or Isaac Scott's in these area after 1800? You are an angel. Thank you Barbara

I do not know how to do all this dredging up of files. This is some information about my William Scott, He had brother John, James, Robert. Andrew.

* Date: Sun, 16 Jul 2000 14:16:37 -0500 William Scott and George Rogers Clark email sent 7-15-00---William Scott under, Capt. Joseph Armstrong volunteers 8-7-1755 also brothers Francis , Patrick and James Scott. They were members of "Flying Camp" and as the name implies they moved swiftly where ever needed. Francis Scott killed at "Sideling Hill" 4-5-1756 (Penn. Archives Ser II, Vol II pgs. 518-519) So we find the Scotts as early pioneers and as protectors of family, community and land. William Scott of Wayne Co. paid taxes 1774-1789, claimed land there in 1776 and fought with the 8th battalian. Was "Overseer of the Poor" Histories of Bourbon Co. Ky. p 121-557: William Scott was one of (18) families that came down the Ohio with Clark to what is now Louisville, from Shermans Valley near Carlisle PA.. These families helped defend the fort at Corn Island (at that time it was only a block house-see further statement by Clark) In Collins "History of Kentucky" Volume I, p 13 soldiers under Capt. Isaac Ruddle. 1779-1780 at Ruddles and > Martins Station under Lt. John Hoggin---James Ruddle and William Scott (among others) In 1778 William Scott claimed a preemption of 400 acres in District of Ky. 1778 Lying on waters of Licking Creek upon a branch that runs into Flat Creek. (This was just a little history on the Scott family because the Draper interview of "old Patrick" makes them sound like a bunch of untruthful druken hillbillies. In fact they were very staunch Presbyterians and helped to build Cane Hill Church. Sorry for the digression. George Rogers Clark was a military man and was on a military assignment when these people were forced upon him by the politics of the times to open up the "West". Clark did not want to take these people to the "Falls" he had a military assignment and did not wish to be burdened with civilians. The civilians numbered 13 and from 5 upward of Clarks soldiers brought their families to "Corn Island", my William Scott being one of these. Clark kept no written records of the number and families that went with him.! He was a military man. However the families kept up their own records. Well that left a few William Scott, Galloway and a few others unaccounted for unless you search the soldiers records. After Clark took the families to Corn Island they built block house to shelter. After this Clark in June toward the end of month took his soldiers onward to his original mission to Vincennes in 1778. As they reached the falls the sun eclipsed* just as Old Patrick had said, "my father reached the falls and the sun was in full eclipse" *--which many people said was not true. As previously stated it was when they were leaving not comming down.) When Clark and his men, William Scott included finished the mission at Vincinnes they came back to Corn Island and built a "Block House". There was no one living on the mainland until Clark got back from Vincennes, he then built a fort on the bank. In fact GEORGE ROGERS CLARK himself said about 20 families followed him to Corn Island (from Pitt to Corn Island) "Much against my inclination *, I found now to be service to me guarding a block house I erected on the Island to secure my provisions". Collins: "History of Kentucky Volume II pg 85. The following year they had to flee to Harrodsburg and help to defend the Fort. Wlliam Scott staked a claim for 1,000 acres in Bath County and later moved to Bourbon Co., on Scott's Branch near Middleton.

I am going to bring home from my library my bound copies of the Scott Quarterlies. I can check to see if any info was sent in by a Scott Family researcher. I can check for spouses names in alot of the alphabet, selected records from some States. So much Data that Craig Scott entered when he was doing the SCOTT-ONE-NAME-STUDY. Dorothy Scott Muirhead

I am also seeking information on Thomas Scott who married Sarah Hamilton. Thanks. Ann Torbett

Seeking info on THOMAS SCOTT ,served in the american revolution,also war of 1812. married sara hamilton in mercer Co. Ky in 1798. born in 1761.

I am seeking any information on James Scott of Brown Co. Ohio that participated in the Underground Railroad. Thanks. Ann Torbett

I'm putting this into this discussion. I've been looking for years for my g-g grandmother who is supposed to have been Nancy Scott. Married ___Stovall, then John Zachary Bell somewhere in NE TX about 1856. He married #2 Martha Jane Scott supposed to have been Nancy's sister. Martha Jane moved to AR after John died in the war and supposedly died in Indian Territory. Nancy owned land in Titus Co. TX along Cypress Creek. John came into TX from Crockett Co., TN where he and his brother Joseph Henson moved from Spotsylvania Co., VA. Nancy was older than John---he was b. 1836. She died, I assume in childbirth, about 1858. They had one sone William Frank. Martha supposedly came to help with Frank and then married John. Now............ Family tradition says Nancy traveled by horseback along with a wagon train (stories say from TN and from The Carolinas) with gold sewn into her skirts. The family is supposed to have own an Indian trading post before they/she came into TX. If anyone exploring the Indian Trader information comes across this family, PLEEEEZE let me know. Lillie B.

Scotts were possibly Indian traders or connected to the Indian trade in the southeast, as the name is listed in the surname index of a three volume set of Indian Affairs journals, located at http://members.aol.com/rarebk Once at the site, go to Booklists, then Native American Genealogy, and scroll down to the Cherokee Ancestry CD. There you will see a link to the surnames. This site also has an on-line tutorial that shows how to do Native American Genealogy research (the 1835 Cherokee census is within that) and explains the rolls in detail, also some CD's that look to have lots of resource material, and a surname index to Starr's "Old Cherokee Families and their Genealogy." There is more, but too much to list here. Steve ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less!
