CHARLES VANCE SCOTT, M. D.
    With keen recognition of the responsibility that devolves upon the physician
and surgeon Dr. Charles Vance Scott is practicing his profession in Little Rock
and his capability is making for continued success. Arkansas claims him as a
native son, his birth having occurred in Gainesville. August 15, 1867. His
parents were William H. and Emily Wesley (Stedman) Scott, both of whom have
departed this life. The father was born in Raleigh, North Carolina, in 1827 and
on coming to this state settled at Gainesville, where he followed the occupation
of farming. The removal was made subsequent to the Civil war, in which he had
served as a private in a North Carolina regiment for a period of four years. His
political support was at all times given to the democratic party. His wife was
born in Raleigh, North Carolina, in 1834, and their marriage was celebrated in
that city in 1852. They became parents of a family of nine sons, six of whom are
living. The mother died in 1887, while the father survived for more than two
decades, his death occurring in 1911.

    Born in Arkansas, in his youthful days Dr. Charles V. Scott attended the
public schools of Gainesville and afterward spent two years as a student in the
Barnes Medical College at St. Louis. He then returned to this state and was
graduated in 1904 from the medical department of the University of Arkansas.
Having thus qualified for professional activity, he at once entered upon
practice as a physician and surgeon and has given his entire time to
professional duties since that day. His efficiency has been constantly
heightened by reason of his broad study and wide experience and at all times he
keeps thoroughly informed concerning the latest scientific researches.

    On the 10th of January, 1892, in Gainesville, Arkansas, Dr. Scott was
married to Miss Martha Louise Greider, who was born in Altamont, Illinois, in
1870, and they have become parents of four children: Leon, who died in 1893;
Vivian Merrell, the wife of I. J. Steed; Cleo Beatrice, who died in 1894; and
Jessie Marie, whose death occurred in 189S.

    Dr. Scott has always heen a democrat in his political views. He belongs to
the Knights of Pythias fraternity, also to the Ancient Order of United Workmen
and to other societies. He and his wife are consistent and faithful members of
the Winfield Memorial Methodist Episcopal church and he is serving on its board
of stewards, doing everything in his power to promote the growth of the church
and advance its object. Along professional lines his connection is with the
Pulaski County Medical Society, the Arkansas State Medical Society, the
Southwestern Medical Society and the American Medical Association. His life is
characterized by high ideals and worthy purposes and he has accomplished great
good for his fellowmen as the years have passed.
