James Major Scott born in June 1850 AR (according to the 1900 Searcy Co AR census) first married Sarah E Weaver (d/o Jefferson J Weaver and Eliza Coffman) aft 1870-71. Sarah died about 1889. I have these children for James M and Sarah:

James Major Scott married (#2) in 1897 to Harriet L Campbell
Williams and they had one daughter Velma Cody Scott born August 1900 Searcy Co AR (that's the baby in the picture)
Velma married Wm Erastus Renfrow about 1917. I have the following for wm and Velma's children:

.... +Ukn Majors
2 Billy Joe Renfrow 1928 -
2 Betty Lou Renfrow 1930 -
.... +Ukn Smith
2 Wm D Renfrow 1935 - 1935

Wm and Velma Scott Renfrow both died in Lubbock Texas according to my records. I hope this will be helpful to others.
I'm still not sure who James Major Scott's parents are, some say John Russell Scott, but I have never found any proof. I now have a picture of James M and Harriet and some of their children and an older lady who I think is his mother, taken about 1897-8. Anyone with more info on James Major Scott I would like to hear from you.
