FOREWORD A Century of a Family in America is commemorated in 1956 in this simple collection of memorabilia which seeks to preserve in permanent form the gist of many memoirs, old and recent. Life is a continuum as we move each moment from past into future. Our forebears live in us and as we observe them, we better understand ourselves. The cultivation of a worthy heritage normally develops a quality yield and enriches life; thus a good yesterday can evolve into a better tomorrow. In the words of Robert Browning: "There shall never be one good lost. What was shall live as before." Con- nection with ancestors pioneering in a new field of endeavor in a new land and with kindred carrying on in many contributive occu- pations throughout America gives a satisfying sense of family par- ticipation in human progress. This Scott-Swan group is typical of thousands of similar families that are the warp and woof which compose the strong fabric of our nation. "We inherit the results of the labors of our ancestors. May their descendants remember them with filial regard and be worthy of our heritage!" "Honor thy father and thy mother" is ever valid. This sketch is primarily for our family and so it is familiar as well as objective. Its foci are Thomas Scott* (1802-1865), Scots- Irish farmer, miller, churchman, community leader, and his estim- able wife, Martha Swan Scott* (1802-1864). Some of the record is regrettably fragmentary and uncertain; further research by a younger person can make it more nearly complete and correct, for 4 10 which a few guiding clues are included. ' Documentation is very deficient but sources are considered authentic unless with (?). Tradition, even when uniform, may not be accurate. Repetitions are for clarity, blank spaces are for later write-ins. If a place in Ireland is mentioned without a County name, Co. Down is implied,—in America without a State name, Illinois is implied. Footnotes are in App. A. The writer commends Genealogy as an interesting avocation, particularly during retirement. Our dual relation to past and future appears in a prayer in The Upper Room: "Father, we thank Thee for the noble examples of those who have gone before us. Consecrate us to the welfare of those who come after us," and in the ascription by Isaac Watts: "O God, our Help in ages past, Our Hope for years to come." ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Basic and general indebtedness is to my mother, Anna Tressler Scott, and to my sister, Vera Scott Cushman (both deceased), for collections of press-clippings, records, memoranda, diaries, corres- pondence, notations and pictures gathered during seventy-five years. The skeletal framework is articulated by an excellent tabulation of names and dates by the late Robert Lindsay Scott of Chicago and by an invaluable family tree about nine feet long by Elizabeth Lind- say Gladstone of Conway, Wales. Data were generously furnished by many relatives in America; very highly contributive were Mrs. Mary Scott Black of Pasadena, Frederick Hossack Scott of Chicago, Mrs. Josephine Tower Coss of Mendota, 111., and the "Life of John ,, Edwin Scott by Myra Hossack Kingsbury. Thanks are expressed to the Pastors and Clerks of the First Presbyterian Churches of Westfield, N. Y., Mendota, 111. and Ottawa, 111. From Ireland much helpful information came from Miss Alice Murphy, J. A. McCracken, J. P. and John Lyons, Esq. of Rathfriland, Mrs. Martha Swan Whit- ley of "Ambleside," Bangor, Arthur Lindsay Haire with his sister Kathleen of "Riverview," Banbridge, and the Genealogical Office, Dublin Castle; from England from Dr. David Moore Lindsay of Weybridge, Sussex, and from New Zealand from Miss Kathleen Haire of New Plymouth. At the generous instigation of the Earl of Dalkeith (Scott of Buccleuch), Scottish background was authori- tatively added by the Unicorn Pursuivant of Arms, Iain Moncreiffe, O.St. J., F.S.A. Scot. A number of important items were gleaned on the spot in Ireland and Scotland in May 1956 by my son David Alan Scott. The Bibliography (App. C) indicates many sources used. Errors and omissions are mine. A friend, Miss Nathalie M. Farr, expertly prepared copy for the printer. To an ever devoted wife, Ruth Cowing Scott, is awarded the Order of the Golden Halo. To each of these and to many others unnamed often unknown, deep gratitude is expressed. Corrections and information, espe- cially regarding the ancestry of Thomas and Martha Scott*, are requested. Many are indebted to the Illinois State Historical Library for its kind service in distribution. 181 Summit Avenue George Tressler Scott Upper Montclair, N. J. Summer of 1956 I. ANCESTRY OF THOMAS SCOTT A. In Scotland Scot is a Gaelic word used in Ireland where it meant rover or wanderer, possibly referring to sea-rovers arriving there from the Iberian peninsula before the Christian Era. In Scotland, Scot meant Gael,—one of the Gaelic-speaking Celtic people that immigrated from north Ireland from the Fifth Century A.D. onward, settled along the west coast of Caledonia and pushed inland, subduing and joining the native Picts and various groups arriving from the Continent. From these Scots the name Scotland was taken about the Twelfth Century. We shall later see many of their descendants, including the forebears of Thomas Scott*, moving back to Northern Ireland in the Seventeenth Century. The earliest historical record of the name Scott is that of Uchtred(us) filius Scot(i) who was a witness to the foundation Charter of Selkirk c. 1120 and a courtier of King David I. Thereafter many of the name Scotte, Scotus and le Scot are recorded. Uchtred had a good English name and lived in the Lowlands near the Border. He had two grandsons; 1) Richard was the an- cestor of the Scotts of Buccleuch and 2) Michael of the Scotts of Balweary. Inasmuch as tradition in several countries uniformly and definitely connects the Thomas Scott* family with Buccleuch branch, we slap-trace that lineage here. From the above Richard descended Sir Richard le Scott (d.1320) and five generations later, Sir David. "Buccleuch" first (?) became a title about 1470 with David Scott, Lord of Buccleuch. Thereafter the title is continuous. The notable Border Chieftain Sir Walter Scott of Buccleuch had an estate in Selkirkshire about 30 miles south of Edinburgh. His son Sir Walter was ele- vated to the Peerage in 1606 as Lord Scott of Buccleuch and the latter's son Walter was created the 1st Earl of Buccleuch in 1619. The Estate and Title of the 2nd Earl, Francis Scott, eventually passed to his second daughter Anne. She married James, Duke of Monmouth; they were created the Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch in 1673 and carried her family name Scott. Their de- scendant in the 8th degree, Sir Walter John Montagu-Douglas-Scott, born December 30, 1894, is the present Duke of Buccleuch and Queensberry, hold- ing numerous other important titles and countless honors, offices and degrees. His son, the Earl of Dalkeith, very cordially supplied directly and through the Unicorn Pursuivant of the Lord Lyon King of Arms of Scotland authentic first- hand data for this Sketch. 2 "The principal area inhabited by Scotts in the 17th Century" according to Pursuivant Iain Moncreiff "was Selkirkshire and Roxburghshire, and parts of Lanarkshire and Dumfriesshire. In the old days when the chiefs of the great Names were held responsible for the deeds of those who bore their Name, a number of folk assumed such names to bring themselves within such a Chief's protection. But the principal families named Scott seem all to have been branches of Buccleuch or Balweary; and these two stocks claim to be one in origin." One important branch of Buccleuch and an old and powerful Border family is Scott of Harden of which Lord Polwarth is the head. It came into leadership at a time when there was no male heir of the Chieftain. Of this Harden Sept was the famous poet and novelist, Sir Walter Scott; visualizing a grand future, he erected the Castle of Abbotsford, near Melrose Abbey whose abbots there forded the River Tweed.

  • 1951 Census Down County Report
    GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch, 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PRICE 7* 6d NET GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch. 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PREFACE Three censuses of population have been taken since the Government of Northern Irel&nd was established. The first enumeration took place in 1926 and incorporated questions relating to occupation and industry, orphanhood and infirmities. The second enumeration made in 1937 was of more limited scope and was intended to bridge the gap between the census of 1926 and the census which it was proposed to take in 1941, but which had to be abandoned owing to the outbreak of war. The census taken as at mid-night of 8th-9th April, 1951, forms the basis of this report and like that in 1926 questions were asked as to the occupations and industries of the population. The length of time required to process the data collected at an enumeration before it can be presented in the ultimate reports is necessarily considerable. In order to meet immediate requirements, however, two Preliminary Reports on the 1951 census were published. The first of these gave the population figures by administrative areas and towns and villages, and by Counties and County Boroughs according to religious pro­ fession. The Second Report, which was restricted to Counties and County Boroughs, gave the population by age groups.
