James Scott was the son of Walter Scott and Mary ?.
He was born circa 1756.
He married Anne Willet.
He died on 19 April 1847 at St. Luc, Que..
From Pam Wood Waugh's web page: 2. James2 SCOTT (Walter1) was born circa 1756. James died 19 April 1847 in St Luc, St Jean Co, PQ, at 90 years of age. His body was interred 21 April 1847. He married Anna WILLET . Anna died before 1847 in PQ. James Scott received land in the 2nd Concession of the Seigniory of Noyan in 1794 [files of Peter Lukin, notary], although it appears that he was one Scott to have left Noyan very early. In the files of Henry Griffin, notary, a document [#1522, 27 July 1816] between James Scott and Hix Salls states that by 1816, James had removed to Blairfindie, Quebec. A Writ of Execution dated 23 Sept 1815 shows James Scott was a Tavernkeeper in the parish of Blairfindie who was seizing land held by John Willard of Noyan. The land was 1/2 of Indian, or Scott's Point in Noyan, bounded on the north by Lot 1, on the south and west by South River and on the east by Ephraim Wheeler's land. It also had a log house and barn on the property. More land was bounded to the north by Walter Scott's farm, to the south by Scott's Point, on the east and west by unconceded lands and South River with about 40 acres under improvement and a log barn. A later Writ of Execution dated 11 Sept 1817 showed that Alexander Hart, a merchant of Montreal, had a suit against James Scott, then a yeoman of Blairfindie and had seized a parcel of land at the Cote Sainte Stanislas in the Parish of Ste. Marguerite of Blairfindie, bounded in front by little river Montreal, to the rear by Cote Ste. Francois Borgea, commonly called the BattleGround,, on one side by King's Highway, leading from Laprairie to St. John, on the other by 2 other tracts which eventually bordered up against land of John Houle. Apparently, his two sons remained in L'Acadie after he moved to Laprarie. He gave his two lots in Laprarie to his sons, James Jr and Stephen on 2 June 1823. Records show that James Scott purchased land in Laprairie from 1824 through 1827, acquiring lots on both St-Henri and St-Paul Streets. On January 1st, 1832, James was listed as a land owner on Cote St-Stanislas L'Acadie. His son Stephen was listed as land owner nearby. On December 28th, 1836, James Scott made a declaration on his properties in Laprairie. In September 1839 he had his L'Acadie land surveyed, lots 99 and 100. James SCOTT and Anna WILLET had the following children: + 8 i. Stephen [Etienne]3 SCOTT. + 9 ii. James [Jacques] SCOTT, Jr.. |
Mary Scott was the daughter of Walter Scott and Mary ?.
She was born circa 1770.
She married Paul Carrigan.
From Pam Wood Waugh's web page: 5. Mary2 SCOTT (Walter1) was born circa 1770. Mary died 26 October 1801 in Noyan, Missisquoi Co, PQ, at 31 years of age. She married before 1795, Paul CARRIGAN. Paul was born in Ireland circa 1756. Paul died circa 1797 in Alburgh, Grand Isle Co, VT. Paul Carrigan and his brothers Patrick and Peter were originally from Ireland and were living on part of the Saratoga patent when the War broke out. Paul's statement [ NAC, A.O. 13 Vol 12, Reel B-2185, pp. 29-32] tells us that the Americans had insisted they join their Army, and not wanting to side with them, they fled their property and country in October 1776 and joined Jessups Corps. Paul Carrigan stated their loss in property to be 563 pounds. Very little is known about Mary Scott Carrigan and her short life. A document located within the files of Leon Lalanne dated 7 November 1801 says "Jane Holgate widow of the late Asa Holgate late of Swanton...declared...that whereas on or about the 26th day of October...Mary Carrighan of Noyan her sister widow of the late Paul Carrighan of Noyan...died...". It continues with Jane Holgate "by request and with the advice of certain relations and friends of the deceased did take in her custody certain effects and papers" from Mary's house. Jane then requested that notary Leon Lalanne inventory the items since she "considered herself exposed to erroneous suspicions...". The inventory included 4 shoe buckles, 6 tea spoons, a pair of sugar "tongues", a blue wooden box in the form of a book, which held a snuff box shaped like a small shoe containing gold rings, some silver wrapped in linen, keys and some papers. There were also other 3 pocket books with enclosed papers, and a parcel of more papers. Since Jane wanted these effects to be deposited with a person of trust, they were all wrapped together and delivered to Philip Ruiter, Esquire to hold. One has to wonder what information might have been found in all those papers.....as well as why Mary's sister felt the urgency to take those items. Probate records at Alburgh, Vermont for Paul Carrigan dated 1 November 1796 [Grand Isle Co, Vol. 1, 5] show his estate to be worth $362 including Lot# 42 in Alburgh, Vermont, oxen, sheep, a plough, weaver's loom, and many other necessary farming articles. This was inventoried 27 April 1797. Later pages dated the third Monday in March 1806 state that the administrator wished to sell the Alburgh land at public auction on the 2nd Tuesday of August 1806 to defray charges and settle the debts of the deceased Paul Carrigan. The land sold for $250 to Duncan McGregor and his personal estate was worth $172. Listed on this particular document was an interesting entry under charges and allowances - "Articles of personal property that the widow carried into Canada that I never could obtain and articles wrongly inventoried amounting....$101." The items inventoried by Leon Lalanne in 1801 certainly would not have been valued at $101, giving even more reason to be more curious about items taken by Jane Scott Holgate. There has been no evidence given that Paul Carrigan and Mary Scott had any children. However, in a document dated 20 Dec 1802 [Grand Isle Co., Vol. 1 17] concerning the estate of Philip Carrigan, Paul's brother, it is stated that settlement of that estate in the amount of $221 be divided between Patrick Carrigan and the heirs of Paul Carrigan. On 25 June 1803 the money was divided and laid out 14 acres each on the north side of the farm owned by said Peter Carrigan to the heirs of Paul Carrigan. Exact descriptions of the land was given and two names: Catherine Carrigan and Margaret Carrigan. The possibility of these two girls as daughters and therefore grandchildren to Walter Scott needs to be researched at length. Mary SCOTT and Paul CARRIGAN had the following children: + 18 i. Catherine3 CARRIGAN was born circa 1792. 19 ii. Margaret CARRIGAN was born before 1801. |
Easter Scott was the daughter of Walter Scott and Mary ?.
She was born circa 1773.
She married Daniel Lucas.
Easter Scott was also known as Esther Scott. From Pam Wood Waugh's web page: 6. Esther2 SCOTT (Walter1) was born before 1773. Esther died 23 June 1829 in Missisquoi Co, PQ, at 56 years of age. Her body was interred 25 June 1829 in Missisquoi Co, PQ. She married before 1795, Daniel LUCAS. Daniel died in Ontario. Esther SCOTT and Daniel LUCAS had the following child: 20 i. Jane Anne3 LUCAS was born in Noyan, Missisquoi Co, PQ 9 January 1810. Jane died after 1828. She was baptized on 3 August 1828, in Clarenceville, Missisquoi Co, PQ. |
Jeannie Scott was the daughter of Walter Scott and Mary ?.
She was born circa 1773.
She married Asa Holgate before 1797.
She married Theophilus Mansfield circa 1802.
Jeannie Scott was also known as Jane Scott. From Pam Wood Waugh's web page: 7. Jane2 SCOTT (Walter1) was born circa 1773. Jane died 14 May 1818 in VT, at 44 years of age. Her body was interred in Swanton, Franklin Co, VT. She married twice. She married before 1797, Asa HOLGATE. Asa was born May 1767. Asa died 5 May 1799 in VT, at 31 years of age. His body was interred in Swanton, Franklin Co, VT. She married circa 1802, Theophilus MANSFIELD in VT. Theophilus was born in Tyringham, ? Co, MA 27 August 1776. He married Abigail TORREY. He married on 1 January 1838, Eunice MILLER in Franklin, Franklin Co, VT . Theophilus died 25 March 1865 in Enosburgh, Franklin Co, VT, at 88 years of age. His body was interred in Franklin, VT. Jane "Holget" is listed among those who took the oath of allegiance at Missiskoui Bay between 1797 and 1798. Her entry is dated 31 March 1798, and in addition to herself and her husband there was a female below the age of 14; they had come from Vermont and were looking to settle in Clifton, Quebec [PAC, R.G. 1, L 3 L, Vol 206, Reel C-2869, pp.96333-96337].This would probably be the same land that was granted her father, Walter Scott. A later document located within the files of Leon Lalanne dated 12 March 1822 appears to also deal with this lot of land. Evidentally, Jane's second husband and her widower, Thomas Mansfield, of Georgia, Vermont sold Lots 6 and 7 in Clifton's 1st Range, amounting to 200 acres to Samuel Holgate of Milton, Vermont for $200. On 3 January 1826 Harvey Holgate, attorney for Theophilus Mansfield swore that he had signed the deed of conveyance voluntarily. This same record was deposited with the Town Clerk at Swanton, Vermont on 13 March 1822 [Vol 8, page 210 as noted by Lalanne's copy]. On the very bottom of the last page is written "within land belonging to the original note of Water Scoat..". At this point (1990) it is not known what relationships both Samuel Holgate and Harvey Holgate had with Jane Scott. They may very well be her sons but further investigation is needed in Vermont to prove or disprove this line of thought. Jane SCOTT and Asa HOLGATE had the following child: 21 i. ?3 HOLGATE was born before 1797. |
