Notes
- Facts about this person: Burial March 23, 1928 Alva Cemetery Woods County Oklahoma
- In "Footprints Across Woods Co., OK" the story submitted about Scott states that Scott and Mary Melinda adopted a son named Dugan who was born ca 1866. I have found no documentation on this yet. Scott may have born in Harrison Co., OH. Scott was writer/poet and had several books published: the hard back book is called: "Musings of the Pilgrim Bard" - at least 2 paperbacks: Twilight Reveries, Owaaneo Pale Flower which is included in his Musings book, Shadows and Sunshine: "A Legend of the Great Rebellion" among others. We have never been able to find the other ones. He was well known in the later part of the 1800's and early 1900"s in both Barber Co., KS and Woods Co., OK., as well as surrounding areas. It was said that he could never turn down a chance to speak at a July 4th celebration or any other type of gathering either. His books show that he was a true patriot and very proud of his country. He has passed that pride down to his decendants
