Kentucky: A History of the State, Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 2nd ed., 1885, Butler Co. SCOTT GALLOWAY was born in Grayson County, Ky., December 18, 1848, and is a son of Smith and Phoebe (Deweese) Galloway, both of whom were natives of Grayson County, and of English descent. Smith Galloway was educated and married in his native county, where he was engaged in agricultural pursuits until his death, which occurred in the latter part of 1849. He and wife were members of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Scott Galloway received a fair education at the common schools in his youth. He remained on the home farm with his mother until he was ten years old, after which he made his home with Ferdinand W. Pirtle, of Ohio County, Ky., until he was sixteen years old. He then came to Butler County, Ky., where he was employed as a laborer on a farm until 1869, after which he engaged in farming on his own account, some three miles below Aberdeen on the Green River, and has been so employed in the same neighborhood ever since, with the exception of one year, when he went to Kansas on a prospecting tour, accomplishing the entire journey with an ox team; he has also followed the carpenter trade to some extent in connection with farming. He was married September 26, 1872, to Almeda Shultz, a native of Ohio County, Ky.; she was born September 20, 1853, and is a daughter of Thias and Mary A. (Shepard) Shultz. Six children have blessed their union, five of whom, three sons and two daughters, are living: Mattie C., Oliver T., Charles H., Ora E., Fannie S. (deceased), and Roy. Mrs. Galloway is a consistent member of the Baptist Church; Mr. Galloway belongs to no church, but holds to the doctrine of the Baptist faith. In politics he is a Republican.
