Fannie Burton Scott

Fannie Burton Scott married George Scott on May 15, 1879, in Paynesville, Missouri. Together, they had nine children, including Lena B., born in 1871; Alonzo, born in 1879; Carrie Scott Nelson, born in 1884; Benjamin Harrison, born September 3, 1891; Ada, whose birth date is unknown; Homer, whose birth date is unknown; and three others not named in their pension records. After her husband's death, Fannie unsuccessfully applied for a widow's pension. Pension agents denied her application because they believed she had started a new relationship. It is unclear when or where she died.
