== Research Notes ==
===Unsourced Children===: Profiles for [[Scott-3472|Johanna]], [[Scott-3465|Anne]] and [[Scott-3471|Pashley]] do not have appropriate sources to connect John and Anne as their parents and have been detached.
:Information on the profile for daughter Sybil (which had showed her also as Isabel, born "circa 1523 - Scotts Hall, Brabourne, Kent, England") is not reliable but includes them:See the project's [[Space:Magna Carta Project Reliable Sources|Reliable Sources page]]. Geni and MyHeritage are both online trees (user-submitted information that may or may not be sourced).* [[Scott-3472|Catherine]] (or Johanna) Strutt (born Scott)MyHeritage, which (looking at the URL) appears to be citing Geni: http://www.myheritage.com/research/collection-40000/geni-world-family-tree?s=178346832&itemId=69502276&action=showRecord (accessed attempted 5 December 2019; subscription required).Geni: [https://www.geni.com/people/Sir-John-Scott-Sr-High-Sheriff-of-Kent/6000000002413899960 Sir John Scott, Sr] (accessed 5 December 2019), which includes a citation in the text to Richardson for John's children. Geni does not have entries for Catherine (or Johanna), Walter, or Thomas, but does for Pashley (see [https://www.geni.com/people/Pashley-Scott/6000000006444068435 his Geni entry] - neither his entry nor his father's has a source to support a son named Pashley).
* [[Scott-3471|Pashley Scott]]:The following additional children were also listed (but do not have profiles attached to John [Scott-239]):
* Thomas Scott
* Sir Walter Scott: The MyHeritage/Geni lists did not include a son George. Perhaps Pashley was meant to be him?

===Death location===:Location of "Brabourne, Kent, England" (as of 2 December 2019) was not sourced in the biography. "Brabourne" was deleted from the datafield, but "Kent, England" still needs a source. ~ [[Noland-165|Noland-165]] 06:49, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
