Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Descendants of William Scott of Hatfield, Mass., 1668-1906, and of John Scott of Springfield, Mass., 1659-1906
Only those who have engaged in similar work can\ realize the needed patience and perseverance required to bring such a task to a satisfactory conclusion. For this reason. The compiler desires to acknowledge his great indebtedness to the hosts of correspondents who have, m the main, so heartily responded to his inquiries, and have made the completion of the genealogy possible. He has been especially indebted to the late lamented William M. Scott of Cam bridge, Vt., who took a deep and abiding interest in the prosecution of the work, and gathered a valuable amount of data pertaining to his branch of the Sc'ott family. It was through his earnest search that the descendants of Daniel Scott were found in Canada, who had been lost sight of for an entire century.
The descendants of John Scott of Springfield have been given a place in this work, because by many he is thought to have been a near relative to William Scott, although the connection has not as yet been made clear.
As no work of this nature has yet attained to perfection, the com piler desires any one who may discover any error to kindly advise him of it, that it may be corrected in an addenda if advisable.
