Charlotte Isabel Scott who was the daughter of Hallett M. Scott and
Sarah Margaret Warnock was my great grandmother. She was born in 18
September 1868 in Logansport, Cass County, Indiana. I think Hallett's
middle name must have been Marion because in the 1850 Jay Co., Ind.
census he is listed at Hallett M. aged 9 and in 1860 in Mercer Co.,
Ohio, he is listed as "Harion" aged 18 which I think should be
"Marion". According to my records, Sarah Margaret Warnock was born 28
September 1845 in Jay Co., Indiana and married Hallett M. Scott 7 Dec
1867 in Jay Co., Ind. Hallett and Sarah Margaret also had a son,
William Sherman Scott who was born 21 August 1871. I also found him
as Sherman Scott. He died in Creek County, Oklahoma 16 October 1944.
In the meantime he lived in Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas and Oklahoma
that I know of. I found Charlotte listed as "Isabell Scott" living as
a servant in the home of Nelson Armontrout. Can't find out anything
about William, her brother. I think he was born in Ohio but don't
know anything else. Why was he not listed with the Nelson Armontrout
(Armentrout) family? Did some other family take him in?
Charlotte Isabell Scott married my great grandfather James Basil Hunt
in Wilson County, Kansas. She divorced him between 1910 (when they
were living in Muskogee County, Oklahoma) and 1920 when she was living
in Yell County, Arkansas. She married Rance Cleland in Yell County,
Arkansas and she died in Yell County, Arkansas, I believe in 1929.
Any help would be appreciated.
