Synopsis
Excerpt from Richard Scott and His Wife Catharine Marbury, and Some of Their Descendants
Some time in 1656, Christopher Holder, a Quaker, came over from Eng land and visited Providence. It is a tradition that Richard Scott, his wife and daughters, soon became converts to the new faith. There is nothing to indicate that John8 Scott was ever of that faith. Although the evidence concerning the identity of John Scott's wife is by no means certain, I think there is very good reason for believing her to have been the daughter of John and Sarah Browne of Old Swansea, who were baptists, members of John Myles's church. It is known that there was a second son, and there is reason for believing his name was Richard.
