General Notes: Husband - James Scott

---

When just a child he was brought to Beaver County, Pennsylvania, with his parents, and there he grew to maturity, attending the public schools and marrying. He acquired the shares of his sisters in the homestead and lived thereon until 1846, when he bought the Murphy farm, living there until his death. He was a member of the Presbyterian Church, and as a Democratic candidate was elected to numerous township offices, being at one time justice of the peace. In military affairs he was also actively interested, for many years being a captain of militia in the local organization of the state troops.
