I have not blogged here in a while. I was going far back in the VanScoter line, and I want to go farther back in one or two more posts and share what is known about my great x 5, 6, 7 grandparents. After that, I will begin to move forward to more “recent” VanScoters from the 19th and early 20th centuries.

But meanwhile, here is a photo of Leota VanScoter, my grandmother. It was taken in 1936, and I believe the cat is named Bluebell.
