John & Elizabeth SCOTT
John & Elizabeth SCOTT
There is very little information about this John SCOTT, apart from his name on his son's marriage
certificate! By supposition, he was born about 1785 in Welney. When and where he married
Elizabeth, I have no idea, but it wasn't in Welney! So I am still working my way round the surrounding
parishes to see if I can trace their marriage entry.
Using the Cambridgeshire Family History Society Transcripts of the Welney Parish Registers, I have
worked out that John & Elizabeth had the following children - but I could be wrong!

By the time of the 1841 England Census, Elizabeth is widowed and living with her daughter,
Sarah in Brimstone Hill [the old name for Christchurch]:
"Between the 16 feet River and the old Croft River from the Black Bull Bridge to Padgetts Drove
to a Green drove opposite John Hodson's boarded cottage by the said Green Drove to Brimstone Hill
and the Old croft and by the Old Croft to the Black Bull Bridge."
