Scott, John (2),

a minister of the Methodist Episcopal Church, was born in Emmeso, Ireland. At the age of seventeen he was converted, and joined the Church. Coming to America, he united with the Methodist Church in St. John's. N. 13. He was licensed to preach in 1822, and in 1825 was received on trial in the Pittsburgh Conference. He was ordained deacon in 1827, and elder in 1829. The Erie Conference was formed in 1836, and he became one of its members. He was made a superannuate in 1847, but became effective the next year. In 1853 he was again superannuated, and held this relation until his death, Sept. 2, 1861. See Minutes of Annual Conferences, 1862, p. 124.
