William McK Scott – Major, United States Army; Peter Scott – Second Lieutenant, United States Army

Sometimes you don’t need an official family history in order to learn of a family’s tragedys.  In this case, Major Scott lost his wife in 1929, when his son, Peter, was only 7 years of age.  During World War II, the Major lost his son, Peter, on 2 January 1944.  Peter’s remains were rerurned home in 1948 and he was laid to rest with his mother in Section 7 of Arlington National Cemetery.  Finally, Major Scott joined his wife and son when he died on 24 June 1963 and he was buried with them.

We are actively seeking additional information about this family.
