INTRODUCTION
WALTER LEE SCOTT (1886-1937) who married (1908)
Ruth Fontaine (1887-1976)
was the father of seven children: Walter Charles Scott, Rena Lou Parks,
Jessie
Virginia Williams, Mary Fontaine Foote, William Fontaine Scott, Jack
Jeffers
Scott and James Fontaine Scott. This book is for them and their
families.
Walter Lee Scott, was the son of CHARLES LEE
SCOTT (b 1861) who married
(1885) Louisa Adalisa "Miss Ladd" Hardaway. They lived on a farm in
Stith
Valley, Meade County, Kentucky.
Charles Lee Scott was the son of HENRY WINFIELD
SCOTT (May 19, 1815 -
May 31, 1886) who married Eleanor Purcell. Henry W. Scott was the first
Scott
to be born in Kentucky.
Henry Winfield Scott was one of two sons born
to WILLIAM SCOTT and
Catherine Ament.
William Scott had been born in Charles County,
Maryland, to THOMAS SCOTT,
a Revolutionary soldier, and his wife Alice Glover. Thomas and Alice
migrated
to North Carolina in the early 1790's after Thomas' mother died.
In 1793, Thomas Scott got a land grant on
Panther Creek in Hardin County
Kentucky for 637 acres, and one on Rough Creek for 256 acres. Sometime
around
1800 Thomas and Alice joined the thousands of settlers heading over
the
mountains to Kentucky.
Their son William met and married Catherine
Ament in Kentucky in 1814.
She had been born in Virginia. His father, Thomas, lived long enough
to see
his grandson, Henry W. Scott. Alice Glover Scott lived another 36 years.
This
book will be about the ancestors and descendants of the Kentucky SCOTTS.
WALTER L. SCOTT
by Walter C. Scott, his son
Walter L. Scott (January 1886-March 1937)
was the oldest son of
Charles L. Scott and Laddie [Louisa Adalisa] Hardaway Scott. His younger
brothers were Winfield, Harold, Fletcher and a sister, Margaret. He
grew
up in Stith Valley and attended the Shumate School. He liked to hunt
and
trap and was an expert marksman. He liked to read and always wished
he
could have been a pioneer.
In 1908 he married Ruth Fontaine, the daughter
of C.B. Fontaine and
Irene Stith Fontaine. Ruth was teaching at Shumate School at that time.
He started farming on the Jesse Stith farm in 1909. Jesse Stith's wife
Lucinda and his Grandmother Margaret were sisters and his Grandfather
Jim Hardaway was buried in a small grave yard on the hill behind the
house. The farm was a part of the 430 acres bought by Richard Stith
in
1811. Richard was the first Stith to settle in the county and had been
here since about 1804. Walter and his father bought the 240 acre farm
for $1267.00 in 1910 when it was sold at the court house door to settle
the estate. Jesse Stith had owned slaves and his wife Lucinda had plenty
of help to grow every flower, shrub and fruit available at that time.
However, by the time Walter got the farm it had been rented for many
years and was as poor as any in the county.
He raised corn and tobacco and an extra good
garden; kept a few
cows, a few hogs, sheep, and some chickens and turkeys. Of course he
kept horses to do the farm work and raised a colt now and then and
sold
it. He always had plenty for the family to eat because he raised it
and
stored it or Ruth canned it. There was never much money, but kerosene
for the lamps was 10 cents a gallon, sugar was 5 or 10 cents a pound
but
you could use sorghum molasses, and he raised sorghum cane and made
molasses. Salt was about fifty cents for one hundred pounds and coffee
about a nickel a pound. Taxes for the farm were about $25 a year and
that had to be paid.
He took the daily paper and there was always
something for the
children to read. The Children went to school "rain or shine" and knew
he would come after them if it was raining or snowing. He would be
there
at the close of school riding a horse and leading one, with a blanket
to
go over each child. It was possible to get three children on one horse
and one in front and one behind him. Most parents kept their children
at
home on bad days. Walter C. and Rena Lou went to the two year high
school at Big Spring, riding horseback over the hill to school. They
rented a room at Brandenburg and finished there; Walter C. in 1927,
and
Rena Lou in 1928.
When County Agricultural Agents came to the
county the children
joined the 4-H Club. When the U.S. Government started the Rural Electric
Administration, Ruth worked with the County Agent and others in the
county and got Mead County Rural Electric Coop started.
Walter was elected deputy sheriff in 1934
with Ned Brown as
sheriff, and moved to Brandenburg. He enjoyed working with people.
One
of his best friends had this to say about him: "If I asked Walt
something he does not want to tell me, he won't tell me but I won't
know
it until he's gone." He was a member of the Big Spring Masonic Lodge,
the Big Spring Methodist Church and a lifetime Democrat. He died in
March of 1937, and his son William F. finished his term.
Ruth, with two boys still in high school,
kept on with the boys
carrying news papers. In 1940 she and son Jack bought the grocery at
the
top of the hill, across the street directly in front of the street
going
down to the river. With Jim helping, she and Jack ran the store until
Jim finished High School.
Ruth got an appointment to West Point Military
Academy for William
after he went to the U. of K. one [and a half years,] Walter C. had
graduated from U. of K., was married and in Agricultural work, Rena
Lou
was married and living in Elizabethtown, Jessie Virginia was married
and
living in Washington, D.C., Mary was married and living in Breckinridge
County, [William joined the Air Force after graduation] Jack married
and
joined the Navy, and James F. joined the Army. Both Jack and Jim
finished at U. of K. after the war and Jim got married there.
RUTH FONTAINE SCOTT
by Jessie S. Williams
and Rena S. Parks, her daughters
Ruth Fontaine was born in Paris, Arkansas in 1887. Her family later
moved to Van Buren, Arkansas. Her father, a lawyer, believed in an
education for his children and she was sent to Boarding School. At
sixteen she came back to Kentucky to live in Stith Valley, Meade County,
where she taught in a one-room school.
In 1908 she married Walter Lee Scott and went to live on a farm. To
this
union were born seven children. She was not used to farm life but she
quickly learned how to live off the land. There was not much recreation
so she planned her own. Christmas was a tradition. Surrounded by
relatives, good food and a tree decorated by homemade decorations.
She
would always organize a Children's Day program at the Methodist Church
about four miles away and reached by driving there in an old surrey.
She
would make new clothes for her children and costumes out of feed sacks
or what ever was on hand.
Ruth Fontaine Scott was a remarkable woman--a Woman for all seasons--for
any era in Time.
She had character. She displayed courage, determination, leadership
and
independence. All the traits the modern oman wants handed to her, Ruth
achieved by her own intelligence.
In Stith Valley and in meade County, Ruth was a PIONEER. The 4-H Youth
Program, which is a part of the U.S. Dept of Agriculture, was in its
infancy and she became a dynamic leader. She used the opportunity to
educate and to elevate young people. She encouraged them to assume
the
rolls of leadership. Her eldest son chose Extension work for his career.
How could any one who went to 4-H camp with HER, forget the experience!
In those days, you didn't pay $40 for 5 days at camp and go riding
off
in an air-conditioned bus. You furnished two live chickens, a gallon
of
beans, a peck of potatoes and anything that was growing in the garden.
You crawled up in the back of a cattle truck with the chicken coops
and
cabbage and rode to camp. An experience that was remembered forever!
She
encouraged the young people to excel. She felt the future of Meade
County, Our country and our nation lay in their hands; and, she was
determined that they would be prepared.
Ruth had COURAGE. In the 1930's her Fontaine cousin was molested and
beaten by a black man. Tension was high in Brandenburg. Women spoke
in
hushed voices; men spoke of lynching. Ruth stood up and spoke out--she
said this was a matter to be decided by the laws of the land, she
further said that the black community should be reassured of their
safety.
Ruth had DETERMINATION. When her husband became Sheriff of Meade County
she left the Valley, that had been settled by and named for her
ancestors. Later when her husband died while in office, she didn't
ring
her hands or cry and say, "What am I going to do with seven children?"
When asked by the leaders of the community if thy could help she
requested a meeting--she asked to be appointed Sheriff, or that her
18-
year-old son [Bill] be appointed. Her son became Sheriff before he
was
old enough to vote.
Ruth was a POLITICIAN. She was a Democrat and believed it was the
people's party. When her son wanted to attend the United States Military
Academy at West Point, she asked help in obtaining a congressional
appointment.
Ruth was PATRIOTIC. During the years of World War II, three sons were
in
the service of their country; but she did not sit at home and brood.
She
opened her home to soldiers and their wives when housing was so scarce
at Fort Knox. In 1943 she rode the train to Louisville 5 days a week
and
attended College so she could teach during the teacher shortage. Later
there was a need for civil workers in Washington; and she moved to
the
capital city. After 10 years in Washington she came back to Kentucky
and
taught school for 2 years. She then studied Art and painted pictures.
many of these paintings hang in her children's and friends' homes.
Ruth was INTELLIGENT. She read everything. She could talk sensibly,
honestly and candidly on most any subject. And she expected those around
her to do likewise.
She enjoyed traveling--She and a friend rode a Greyhound bus to
California. They stopped along the way to visit friends and relatives
and points of interest. It took them six weeks to get back to Kentucky.
When her son was a teacher at the Royal Air Force Academy, she flew
to
England and took a trip to Paris, France, by herself.
Ruth had a sense of LOYALTY to her friends and family. Her ties were
strong and she called many people in our county, "Cousin." Her knowledge
of the ancestors of many families made her a living depository of
genealogy. She was an organizing member of the Ambrose Meador Chapter,
Daughters of the American Revolution.
Ruth was a DEVOTED MOTHER in the truest sense of the word. She was
nominated Kentucky Mother of the Year.
She leaves Heirs that are accomplished in every profession and field.
Seven children, Twenty grandchildren and Twenty-seven Great
Grandchildren.
Ruth Fontaine Scott left a legacy; she inspired her family and friends
to excel; to serve their country and their fellow man; and, to love
God.
JOHN SCOTT - "INDIAN QUARTER"
ANCESTRAL LINE:
JOHN SCOTT 1 of "Indian Quarter", Planter
of Charles County, Maryland
SCOTT FAMILY TREE
The SCOTTs probably came to Charles County,
Maryland, from Scotland.
Maryland was the colony of the Lord Baron of Baltimore, Cecil Calvert.
A
mission was established in Port Tobacco in 1642 to convert the indians
living
in the area, but it lasted only two years. With the Reformists coming
to power
in England in 1644, the Calverts lost the colony. The area began to
grow by
the time of the Restoration of Maryland to the Calverts by Oliver Cromwell
in
1657. All land along the Port Tobacco River was patented between 1649
and
1660. The main crop was tobacco, lots and lots of tobacco.
Early settlers came to St. Mary's County in
1634. The Lord Proprietor of
the Colony divided the land into Proprietary Manors. Grants of several
thousand acres were given to friends of the Proprietor. Manors were
subdivided
into "Hundreds". Wiccommico Hundred (1642), Pykawaxen Hundred (1649),
Riverside Hundred (1653), Chingamuxen Hundred (1653), and Nanjemoy
Hundred
(1657), became Charles County when it was founded in 1658. Cecil Calvert
named
it for his son, Charles Calvert. The original proclamation seemed intended
to
include all land west of the Patuxent.
There was great political struggle in the
years just prior to the
formation of Charles County between the Puritans and the King. A heavy
tax on
tobacco had caused a rebellion of citizens. When Charles II returned
to the
throne in May 1660, the rebellion collapsed.
In 1663, the Assembly ordered County Commissioners
of each county to
build stocks and a pillory near the courthouse and a ducking stool
at some
convenient place and also to provide irons from branding malefactors:
H was
for hog stealers, R for runaway slaves, M for murderers and T for thieves.
There was also a whipping post near the "court house" although court
was held
in a local inn until 1674 when a court house was built.
There was a John SCOTT who emigrated to Maryland
in 1666, bringing his
wife Elizabeth and two children: John and Elizabeth. A Samuel SCOTT
came that
same year. It is possible that this John was the ancestor of the American
SCOTTs presented below but there is no proof.
A John Scott registers his brand mark in 1697
and a William Scott
registers his in 1703. But it is not until another John SCOTT
1 and his wife,
Catherine, purchased "Indian Quarter" from Thomas and Alice Harris
in Charles
County, Maryland in 1713 that the line can be traced.
Although good court records were kept earlier,
because of chaotic
conditions in the Colony between 1689 and 1692, during its change from
a
Proprietary Colony to a Royal Colony, records were not well kept.
From the very beginning, Protestants and Catholics
in Charles County were
about equal. Most Protestants were Presbyterians. In 1689, when protestant
William and Mary came to the throne of England, Lord Baltimore, a Catholic,
was again in difficulty. In 1692, the Colony's governor had the Assembly
pass
an act establishing the Protestant religion of the Church of England
as the
established religion of Maryland. In 1689, a letter was sent to William
and
Mary from supporters. Among the 70 signers was a SCOTT ancestor.
In 1690, Mathew Tennison reported that the
indians told him they were
given guns to kill Protestants. Mathew told them there were too
many. By
1700, no indians were left in the area.
By 1692, Reverend Oliver Burch and his wife,
Barbara Scott, were settled
near Trinity Parish Church where he was the rector. The early SCOTTs
lived in
this parish. John SCOTT 1's plantation, "Indian Quarter", purchased
in 1713,
was located about a mile from the church. Scotts owned pews in the
church and
their children were baptized in it.
Brides of 15 and 16 were common in the early
days of the colonies. There
was also a shocking rapidity of remarriage. Estates were often settled
by the
widow and her new husband in less than a year. The reason was
simple. There
were more men than women. The census of 1712 showed 933 masters and
taxable
men in Charles County, 783 white women, 1507 children and 724 negroes.
JOHN SCOTT 1, who died in 1724, left "Indian
Quarter" to his two sons,
John 2 and William. Here is an abstract of his will:
John Scott 1, to son John 2 and to his
son John; to son William
and his daughter Ann; to granddaughters
Ann, Rebecca, Catherine
and grandsons John and Thomas. Wife
Catherine. Land, "Indian
Quarter", to two sons, John 2 and William.
wit: Geo. Brett, John Williams and William
Watkins
There was a creek which served as a natural
dividing line running through
the middle of the tract. JOHN 2 got the upper half and William the
lower half.
JOHN 2's wife's name was CATHERINE but no maiden name has been found
for her.
JOHN SCOTT 1's son JOHN 2 died in 1741. His
wife's name was ELIZABETH.
No will has been found. His estate was finally settled in 1743. His
widow,
Elizabeth, and eight children were at the settlement, viz: Katherine,
WILLIAM
3 (the ancestor), Justinian, Elizabeth, John, Mary, Thomas and Zachariah
Scott.
In the mid-1700s, the manor system was used in Maryland.
We find WILLIAM 3
(son of John 2) and CHRISTIAN SCOTT and Ann, wife of the older William
Scott
listed in St Mary's County, Chaptico, Jan 1768: State of His Lordship's
Manor:
#47 date of lease: Dec 25, 1753; to: WILLIAM SCOTT 3; acres: 25; tenant

Note: William Scott (wife Ann d 1763),
uncle of WILLIAM SCOTT 3
(CHRISTIAN), died about 1746, the date
lease #49 was made. Walter
Burch was the only son of Rebecca (Scott)
and Thomas Burch. Her
sister, Elizabeth Scott md William Love
in 1747. Their only
brother, John Scott, died in 1763.
The will of Ann Scott was filed in Charles County in 1763:
26 March 1763 Ann Scott,
of Charles County, Maryland, widow,
[of William] to daughter Rebecca Burch
- slaves, at her decease to
granddaughter Ann Burch; to daughters
Susanna, Rebecca and
Margaret Burch; to granddaughter Cathrain
Scott one slave, if she
die, to her brother William, and if
he die to his heir; to my
daughter Elizabeth Love - keep slave
until Catherine is 16; to
granddaughter Ann Love - 1 slave; to
her sisters Sara & Margaret;
to grandson William Scott - 5000 lbs
of tobacco; to my
granddaughter Sara Love, Margaret Love.
Executrix Elizabeth Love,
my daughter. Probate Dec 13, 1763.
wit: Karrenheppach McPherson, William
Mc Pherson
John Scott 2's son, WILLIAM SCOTT 3, died
in 1786 without making a will.
The final settlement for WILLIAM SCOTT 3 was made on October 1786.
Named in
the settlement were the widow, Christian Scott and 8 children viz:
Eleanor,
Elizabeth, James, THOMAS 4 (the ancestor), Gustavus, Samuel, Sarah
and
William, all of age except William who was 17 the 7th of January.
CHRISTIAN SCOTT's estate was inventoried on
the 28th of March 1792.
Eleanor Scott and THOMAS SCOTT 4 sign as next of kin. On 10 June, James
Scott,
the administrator of her estate, signed the inventory.
In 1753, the rector of Trinity Parish Church
opened a private school
which continued until 1784. The second and most famous rector was the
Reverend
Hatch Dent who became rector in 1786. THOMAS SCOTT 4's older sister
Elizabeth
married into the Dent family about that time, naming a son Hatch Dent.
In 1766 Lord Baltimore ordered the Proprietary Manors
in the Province to
be sold. The 1765 Stamp Act was received with great indignation and
a
determined resistance by the people of Charles County. Colonists refused
to
import anything taxed by this act. In 1774, a shipment of tea was dumped
into
Boston harbour by irate citizens. England responded by blockading Boston
harbor. Marylanders joined in the resulting protest, vowing to import
no goods
from Great Britain, and agreeing to break relations with Britain.
In 1774 Benjamin Philpott, brother of CHARITY
PHILPOTT GLOVER and the
mother of ALICE GLOVER who married THOMAS SCOTT 4, was on the committee
of 100
best known citizens of the county elected to vote for representatives
to the
Continental Congress. THOMAS SCOTT 4 served as a private in the Charles
County
Militia.
The first United States Census, taken
in 1790, showed a population of
jus over 20,000. There are six SCOTTs in the Census:

____________________________________________________________________________
The move from Charles County had begun. Brother
James moved to Prince
Georges County, selling "Indian Quarter" to his brother Samuel. Gustavus
may
have been in Montgomery County. William died sometime before 1810,
leaving his
share of land to brother Samuel.
THOMAS SCOTT 4 and ALICE, and son WILLIAM 5, moved
first to North
Carolina. Their sons, Thomas (1795) and Samuel (1798), were born there,
their
daughter Joanna was married there.
Back in Charles County, Maryland, Samuel Scott died
in 1810. His daughter,
Harriet Scott, sold "Indian Quarter" soon after. The land had been
in the
Scott family nearly 100 years.
Eleanor married Samuel Dixon right after her mother
died in 1792. Sam
Dixon was a Catholic. Eleanor was 40. Sam died in 1796. Elizabeth Dent
appears
to have died young. Nothing further is known about sister Sarah Scott.
Then, in 1793, THOMAS SCOTT 4 got a land grant for
637 acres on Panther
Creek in Hardin County, in Kentucky, and 256 acres on Rough Creek.
