    Children of Samuel Scott and Elizabeth H. C. Bigger are:
    Louisa Scott, Samuel J. Scott and William G. Scott
    Louisa Scott Married James Whitehead and had daughters Eliza, who married William E. Durphey, and Mary Elizabeth Whitehead who married Samuel Carter.

    [The information below is from the Ancestry Boards; I do not believe Elizabeth Archer Osborne is the mother of this Samuel Scott who married Elizabeth H. C. 'Betsy' Bigger. In the DAR Records, William Scott of Prince Edward, is named as the Father of Samuel Scott who married Betsy Bigger. Other parts of this information should be verified.-mfe]
