Hi Coleen,
Better to post this query you sent to me on one of the pertinent message boards, (that
is, if it is a Boone County census you are referring to, otherwise post on the county you
are referring to) as I can't personally help you with any additional data for these
families. I don't live in Indiana (in fact I live in Japan) and I have no connections
with the libraries or historical societies. You can read a little bit more about my Boone
County website here, as people are often confused thinking I have much more resources and
data available for lookups, etc., or that I can go to the Boone County courthouse, etc.
However, I'm just sitting at home on my computer hosting a genealogy website ... from
Japan! ;-) I was only trying as a favor, and because I always love a challenge, to help
you by checking Ancestry for more information you might have missed, and I sent what I
found in the other email.
I did run across these messages on RootsWeb for the family you are researching. Read
all 12 of them, because one of the posters may have identified your Scott family, or at
least you could compare notes with him by sending him an email, or replying on this string
of messages. I noted they have a few errors in some of these messages ... like the death
date for Temple, showing 1896, and I found he died in 1891:

Once again ... good luck, and if you ever find any records for this family that pertain
to Boone County, I hope you will contribute them to the website.

I have located a Scott family in 1850
census records. Jonathon Scott and
wife Sarah (Parr/Pare/Pair). Daughter
Martha is about 2. In 1860 Sarah is a
widow daughter Martha is age 12.
Who did this Martha marry? I can not
locate this family in Heritage Quest,
Ancesty.com or Rootsweb World Connect.
Anything from the local Historical Soc.
or local Genealogical Soc. for Boone Co
would be appreciated.
My Martha Ann Scott born abt 1848 in
IN allegedly Terra Haute Vigo Co IN.
Can not be located until she resurfaces
in 1867 Boone Co IA married to Temple
Smith of IN and they have my dads'
maternal grandmother Charlotte Jane
Smith.
I have checked marriage ndexes for IN
and IA with no marriages recorded for
Temple and Martha.
Anything anyone can tell me about this
family would be appreciated. Marthas'
death record states her father is John
or Jonathon born IN/PA mother is Unk.
Information given by a daughter she
was living with at the time of her death
in 1930 Laramie Carbon Co WY. Temple
died 1894 No Platte Lincoln Co NE.
