Notes |
- 1803 Administration of estate of late husband John, called "mother" in document of children in relinquishing their share of the estate. (Washington Co., VA Will Book 2 pg 383-5)
1 Jan 1804 Washington County, VA Deed Book 3 pg 118-119 a gift from Ann to son Andrew "land where she lives".
18 May 1804 purchased from Gabriel Gill, a merchant, at an estate sale pots and hooks (Washington Co., VA Will Book 2 pg 544 ff)
Some speculate that he maiden name was Wilson, but Matthew SCOTT who has done extensive SCOTT research does not concur:
Anna's maiden name was long thought to be Wilson, which would account for the name being passed down to her sons and beyond. However, no proof has ever been found. Many sources have repeated the obvious date errors in "History of the Early Settlers of Sangamon co. Illinois" (that the John Scott who was born in 1734 and married in 1756 also fought in the Revolutionary War and had his eldest son born in 1786); also listed in this book was that John Wilson Scott's first wife was Ann Craytin. However, since many of George & Anne Scott Kincannon's (see below) descendants passed on the family name "Creighton" (including to their youngest daughter, Isabella Creighton Kincannon), and absolutely none of the descendants of George Kincannon's brothers and sisters passed on that name, it was thought by Kincannon family researchers- and is reasonable to conclude- that the name was passed from Anne Scott's family. The confusion in "History of the Early Settlers of Sangamon co. Illinois" may have come from Ann Creighton being John Wilson Scott's mother's name, not his first wife's name.
