James Solomon Scott: A Timeline

James Solomon Scott is the younger brother of my 2x Great-Grandmother, Scoatney (Scott) Cooper. His name has showed up a number of times on the blog, but mostly as he relates to other people – either as I was trying to figure out “The Case of the Second Masonia” or as I was beginning to learn about his brother, Sydney Borden Scott. He’s never had his time to shine! Well, creating a timeline for his life to lift him out of the shadows has been on my list for a while. Now, I’m making it happen. As usual, continue to expect more posts about him in the future, which will be linked as relevant to various points on the timeline below.

Sydney Borden Scott: A Timeline

Sydney Borden Scott, or Borden, as he seems to have preferred being called, was the younger half-brother of my maternal 2x Great-Grandmother, Scoatney (Scott) Cooper. Because he left so many records behind, he has been an absolute joy to research, and if you’ve been following my blog for a while, or have seen my Facebook feed, you know I’ve written more than a few posts about him, exploring his life as a student, doctor, and post office employee. As usual, those posts are linked in their appropriate places on the timeline below, and as additional ones are written, I’ll drop them in as well.
