Andy Scott, uncle of pioneer Dr. Scott, was born in Indiana in 1832, and came west when a young man. He made friends with the Indians, learned their language, and lived and trapped with them and bought their skins and furs. He was with the Omahas and Otoes when they were hunting and trapping in this township in pioneer times and all along the northern part of Kansas. He had many Indian friends.
Later he moved to Blue Rapids, Kansas, married and reared a family there. He lived a long life and passed on many years ago.
