SCOTT family:
John Lee Scott (b. 29.3.48) and George Scott (b. 1851) were the two youngest children of John and Mary (nee Yates), who had moved from Dukes Alley, Bolton Le Moors, Lancashire to Derbyshire following John’s trade as a "model maker" in the foundries. John Lee and George Scott apprenticed at the "Atlas" Engineering Works in Derby as pattern makers and engineers. In 1870 together with John Lee’s new wife Elizabeth (nee Sinclair) they emigrated to New Zealand on the Ramsay (sailed 27.3.1870 arrived Lyttelton 16.6.1870). In Christchurch, they built cottages and their own homes and then founded Scott Brothers Ltd. a foundry and later manufacturer of electric ranges which served New Zealanders for almost a century at 65 Manchester Ave. Christchurch, building a wide range of products from railway engines to the "Atlas" electric range. John Lee Scott went on to serve his community by teaching at Canterbury College, he was a Commissioner of Railways, and a City Councillor. Later in 1870, aboard the Zealandia (sailed 23.9.1870 arrived Lyttelton 23.12.1870) Mary (nee Yates), John Lee and George Scott’s mother sailed to join her sons, together with her daughter Alice, and Alice’s husband Thomas Cutler.
