General Notes: Husband - William Wallace Scott

---

After attending the public schools of his native county and academies at Turtle Creek, Enon Valley and Mansfield, Pennsylvania, he entered Jefferson College. He discontinued his college course to enlist in the Union army, and in August, 1861, became a private in Company D, Tenth Regiment Pennsylvania Reserve Volunteer Corps, (the Thirty-ninth Pennsylvania Volunteers), later becoming a non-commissioned officer; afterward transferred to Company K, One Hundred and Ninetieth Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry. This latter regiment was the old veteran Buck Tail Regiment, and in this organization he served until the close of his service. He was slightly wounded at first Cold Harbor or Gaines' Mills, during the Seven Days' Fight before Richmond, but continued on duty.
In 1867 Mr. Scott moved to Newton, Iowa, and was there engaged in cattle dealing, returning east at the death of his father. He became teller in the Union National Bank of Pittsburgh, cashier of the Smithfield National Bank of Pittsburgh, and later manager in the life insurance business in the same city. He made his home in Sewickley beginning 1881, and in 1899, under President McKinley, he became postmaster in Sewickley, a position he held for at least four terms. His political party was the Republican; his church was the United Presbyterian, some form of the Presbyterian religion having satisfied the spiritual needs of his ancestors for generations. He held membership in the Grand Army of the Republic and the Union Veteran Legion. His college fraternity was the Delta Kappa Epsilon. It is interesting to note in Mr. Scott's war record that in the battle of Gettysburg he fought on the ground whereon his ancestors had settled before the birth of the country whose unity he then strove to maintain.
