First arriving in Hawaii in 1890, Ranney Scott, assistant treasurer of the Hawaiian Trust Co., Ltd., witnessed many of the stirring events of the last years of the Hawaiian Monarchy, overthrown by revolution in 1893, although he did not return here with the definite determination to make Honolulu his home until 1903. Born in Elizabeth, N.J., Nov. 30, 1867, Mr. Scott is the son of J. Austin and Sarah (Ranney) Scott. He was graduated from the University of Michigan. While in Honolulu during the revolutionary period of the 90’s, Mr. Scott was a member of Company B, Hawaiian Militia, in 1894, and served as a private in the Mounted Reserves in 1895. During his early years in Hawaii, Mr. Scott divided his business interests between Honolulu and the mainland, devoting considerable time to travel. He first became affiliated with the Hawaiian Trust Co. in 1903 as an assistant cashier. He married Edna Catherine Kelley, July 26, 1904. Mrs. Scott is the great- grand-daughter of Samuel Whitney, who came to Hawaii in 1820 on the “Thaddeus” as a member of the original company of missionaries to Hawaii. Mr. Scott is a member of the University Club.
