Martha Ann Scott born 1848 Terra Haute Vigo
Co IN to John and (?). The family leaves prior
to 1850 as checking 1850-60 census index for
a John Scott born IN/PA with a daughter age
-2- in 1850 name of Martha and a daughter
Martha age -12- 1860 does not appear in
IN census indexes. Also checking 1850-60
Federal Census Indexes they do not appear
anywhere.
Martha and husband Temple Smith of Owen
Co IN appear in Melbourn Boone Co IA with
a daughter Charlotte Jane born 1866 in that
area. Also in 1867-68 son born to this couple.
Who was John Scott? When & where was he
born? Who did he marry and when? Was a
family story that Marthas' mother may have
been Native American. I am trying to find
some record for a John Scott born IN/PA that
married prior to 1848. Unknown who Marthas'
siblings were. Martha (Scott) Smiths' obit
did not list any siblings she may have been
preceeded/survived by.
