Irma Labrot and Ashbel Russell Welch

Ashbel Russell Welch was a cousin of William Scott Bryan and grandson of Asbel Welch of Lamberville, New
Jersey. Ashbel was a younger brother of Sylvester Welch. Irma was a daughter of Louisa Welch and Leopold
Labrot. Her brother Sylvester Welch Labrot was a bridge and tunnel engineer with the L & N Railroad and later
founded the American Creosote Works and became an avid horse racer.  William Scott Bryan moved to New
Orleans to take a position in Labrot's creosote business in 1904.

Col. Dr. John Mitchell Scott was the first Sheriff of Franklin County. Portraits of Catherine and John were
painted by a prisoner convicted of murder.  The portrait of John Mitchell Scott is still in the family.  The
portrait of Catherine was sold at auction in the 1970's and its' location is unknown.  Copies made by
W. S. Bryan in the 1890's still exist.

Arabella Scott (1), after the death of her husband Sylvester in 1852, sold her home on Versailles Road and
moved to the corner of Clinton and Ann Streets where she built 4 additional houses in the former garden for 4 of
her 5 daughters.
