SCOTT FAMILY NAME RESEARCH



The object of this research is to investigate the various Scott Families in Virginia and surrounding states, and their descendants, in an attempt to find the origins of our ancestor, John Scott [F137], who is said to have been born in Virginia.

The Virginia Scott family is said to originate with the Reverend John Scott [F1].

Another possibility is John SCOTT [F159] of Clifton, Virginia. He is said to be one of three brothers who came over from England or Scotland. One of those brothers apparently was Thomas SCOTT [F209]. They are said to be descendants of James SCOTT [F210] of Aberdeen, Scotland.

Other than from Scotland, the surname Scot or Scott was well established in East Anglia, England at an early date. There were, for example 35 persons called Scot in the Suffolk subsidy rolls for 1327, and in the Suffolk returns of 1523 there are at least 16 Scots. The surname may indicate Scots descent, or it may be a nickname.

CULPEPER COUNTY, VIRGINIA

I include this information on Culpeper County here because we THINK that is where we need to look to find our ancestors next.

The county seat is Culpeper, Virginia.

Culpeper County, Virginia, was formed in 1748 from Orange County. The first court convened in 1749.

Madison County was formed in 1792 from Culpeper County. Rappahannock County was formed in 1833 from Culpeper County.

It was named for Lord Culpeper, who served as Governor of Virginia from 1680 to 1683.

On a hill in the western outskirts of Culpeper the famous Culpeper Minute Men were organized 1775.

Notes for ALEXANDER SCOTT: PETITION FOR A NEW STATE (List alphabetized from "The Ten Mile Country and Its Pioneer Families"). Fayette, Washington & Greene Co PA and Ohio & Monongalia Co VA (From an original petition for a new state located in the Library of Congress. No date on document. Papers of the Continental Congress No 48, Folios 251-6, pages 89-96). The names in this petition, which is not dated, seem at times to be taken from the militia rolls, and if circulated after 1780 contains names of persons deceased or moved from the district. There is no attempt to conceal the fact that the signatures were written by the prime agitators of the movement as many of those names which appear here could only make their mark.
