General Notes: Husband - John P. Scott


He and his wife began married life on the farm in Cecil township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where they long remained. He taught school three years in Mt. Pleasant and Cecil townships, and thereafter was engaged in cultivating the farm, containing 280 fertile acres. Among the many improvements which were made may be mentioned the erection of a good, commodious barn, 42 by 62 feet. Mr. Scott made a specialty of raising Delaine wool Merino sheep. In politics he was a strong adherent of the Prohibition party, and at one time was a candidate for county commissioner. In religious faith he and his wife were members of the U. P. Church at Venice, in which he was an elder, having been elected to that office August 28, 1864.

Had he consented, he might have held many local offices, but he accepted only that of school director. He was the charter president of the McDonald Savings and Trust Company, and at the time of his decease, was president of the Peoples' National Bank of McDonald.
