General Notes: Husband - James Scott


After the death of their father, he and his siblings emigrated to America, first locating in Lancaster county, Pennsylvania, some of them afterward moving to Washington (now Allegheny) County, same state.

He settled with his brother Zaccheus, on a farm in Elizabeth township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.

The youngest son of Joseph Scott, Sr., when he came to western Pennsylvania settled in what was known as the "Forks of the Yough" settlement, now Elizabeth township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. This farm he afterward patented, November 9, 1789; part of this farm was later owned by his grandson, Zaccheus Scott. James Scott had eight children, and three of the sons were in the War of 1812, two of them as captains, one being promoted to colonel.
