Thomas Scott enlisted as a Private in the 10th
Virginia Regiment on January 11, 1777.
He spent the winter of 1777-1778 at Valley Forge. When the Virginia 10th Regiment
arrived at Valley Forge they numbered 442 men, of which there were 5 named
Scott.
Cadwallider Scott
Drury Scott
John Scott
Reuben Scott
Thomas Scott
General Charles Scott was at Valley Forge in Command of the
Virginia 12th Regiment.
In 1779 a George Scott is listed on the Muster Roll as
serving as replacement for R. Scott.
During 1779 the Muster Rolls show Thomas and Drury Scott are
on “furlough and supposed with Genl Scott at the Southward”.
General Charles Scott was captured by the British in the
Carolinas in 1780.
My guess is that some, if not all, of these Scott men were
related. I hope to hear from descendants
of some of these men.
