| Birth | James Scott was born in 1808 at Scotland. |
| Marriage | He married Elizabeth Scott on 10 February 1837 at Ancaster Twp., Gore District, Upper Canada. Refer Vital Records of Upper Canada / Canada West, Vol. 2: Part 2, Gore District, 1824-1869, compiled by Dan Walker and Fawne Stratford-Devai, Global Heritage Press/Globalgenealogy.com Inc., 2013, page 38, St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Dundas & Ancaster, marriages 1834-1857 James Scott of Dumfries Twp., Carpenter, to Elizabeth Scott of Dundas. 10 Feb. 1837, Ancaster Twp., by licence. Wit Adam Scott and Matthew Elliot. |
| Marriage | He married Susan Rennie, daughter of Alexander Rennie and Susannah Christie, on 17 January 1845 at Dumfries Township, Gore District. MS248 reel 1 Vol. 4, page 19 Gore District Marriage Register Extracted from a list of marriages solemnized by Rev. James Strang of First Church Galt (Presbyterian) James Scott and Susannah Rannie, both of Dumfries, by license, on Jany. 17, 1845. Witnesses John Browne and John Rannie. The above is taken from the image as it appears on the page of the Gore District marriage register and is clearly written. A rather faded rendition of the above appears on microfilm reel GS2987, First Church, and is to be found under marriage number 187. The names of the witnesses are rather difficult to read, but the one extra piece of information it does provide is to locate the marriage in Dumfries. |
| Death | He died on 15 June 1896 at Galt, Waterloo Co., Ontario. |
| Burial | He was buried at Section 1, Mountview Cemetery, Galt. |

(Note: Yet to be researched. James does appear to have two sons Robert, one by Elizabeth and one by Susannah. First Church baptism records might tell the story, but the baptisms of 1853 aren't in my files.) |
