Family Robert P. Scott, b. 29 Jan 1831, Indiana, United States d. 23 Apr 1909, Jefferson Township, Carroll, Indiana, United States (Age 78 years) Marriage 12 Apr 1854 Carroll County, Indiana, United States [9] - Although it looks like the year of 1834 in the Marriage Record, it is obvious that it is 1854. Robert was not born until 1831, and obviously a 3 year old is not gonna get married. Also if you look at the bottom of the page it is certified in May 1854. Granted you have to look at it carefully to see that the date is 1854, but if you look at the marriage record on the next page, it is apparent that the certified date is 1854

Notes - The 1880 Census has Sophia being born in 1838. According to the 1900 Census, Sophia is the mother of 9 children with only 8 living. I have only recorded 8 children so it is unknown who the 9th child is.
