• Notes

  Joseph's son, Thomas is living next door to him in 1850. Joseph is listed as being born in 1790 in the 1850 census. It appears that Joseph and Mary started out in North Carolina and then before Nancy, their daughter was born, they were in Tennessee. By 1824 - 1828 they are in Indiana. I had entered Joseph Sr and Nansie (Stodgon) Scott as Joseph's father. However, that would have made Joseph Sr being of the age of 76 years old at Joseph's birth. That seems to be to way off for a couple to have children at that age. Although possible, it is highly unlikely. Most women do not have children after the age of 45, although some do in their 50's. However, until I can get proof that Joseph and Nansie are his parents, I am removing them as the parents. Something else to consider as well is the naming pattern back then. Scottish naming patterns usually went as follows: The pattern generally went as follows: The first son was named after the father's father. The second son after the mother's father. The third son after the father. The first daughter after the mother's mother. The second daughter after the father's mother. The third daughter after the mother. Keep in mind that sometimes they named them with a middle name. However He never named a child Joseph until the last one. If you go by the naming pattern then Joseph's father would be the name of Thomas in some way. And this always makes one wonder if Isaac is Mary's father at all as well as the 2nd son was named after the Mothers father which would make her father's name Silas. And if you go by the naming pattern, Nancy would be Mary's mother. and Jane would be Joseph's mother. But the 3rd daughter is named Celia which is no where close to her mother's name.
