Scott Cemetery
T24, R13, S7
Highway 95 to 143, left a few yards

This burial ground takes its name from early settler,  Brison  Scott,  a
Civil War veteran whose engraved stone remains  along  with  four  other
graves marked with fieldstones. The land  is  now  owned  by  James  and
Beverly Guest.

The fieldstones mark the graves of Ebby  SCOTT,  Dick  SCOTT,  and  Dick
Scott's wife and baby, no names remembered. A story from long ago  tells
of the baby's dying when unable to breathe, being wrapped too tightly in
blankets when being taken to the doctor at Rockbridge.

The remaining fieldstone bears this inscription: Brison SCOTT, Co. M 3rd
Iowa Cav.
