From Find a Grave:
Lucinda A. Leach was born May 7, 1868 in Fairmount Township to William J. Leach and Ellen J. (Havens) Leach of the prominent family of that name in southern Grant County. The other children in the Leach family were, Charles E., Anna and Martha C.
Lucinda A. Leach married John H. Scott in 1890. The children of John Scott and Lucinda Leach Scott are: Effie, Ira Pearl, Sarah Ellen, William Harvey, Ancil Everett and Arlie W.
"On section twenty-six of Jefferson township is located one of the substantial country homes of Grant county. It is not a pretentious homestead. It comprises seventy-five acres of as good land as can be found in the vicinity, and one of the evidences of his thrift and prosperity is a comfortable white house, standing in the midst of a grove of trees, erected by him in 1898. A good barn and all other facilities for up-to-date farming are on the place. Mr. Scott is one of the very excellent farmers, and he and his wife, who has worked alongside of him throughout their married career, have succeeded in building up a modest little fortune and in rearing a family of good children. More than that could hardly be said in praise of anyone, and it is an accomplishment to be proud of."
John H. and Lucinda Scott were members of the Methodist Church, and his political affiliation was with the Republican party.
