History of the Scott Family

Henry Lee

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Innes, in relation to the original name of Scot or Scott in Scotland, was that long before surnames were known, the people of that country received the appellation of Scotus or Scot in addi tion to their former name, thus plain Robert became Robert Scot and reared a family who retained the name of their ancestor. This especially may have been so with those who wandered from Scotland into other countries, and who became known as Robert the Scot, David Scotus as the case might be. Other historians claim that the name of Scot land itself was derived from the family name; in fact, claim that a family of primitive gypsies gave a name to the country in which it located instead of a country giving a surname to divers Wanderers from its borders.
