Andrew Scott
One of the settlers of 1796, at North Bend, was Andrew Scott, a Scotch immigrant from Redstone, Pennsylvania, who was one of the first blacksmiths to erect a shop and open for business here. He remained at the Bend about six years, and then went on a farm, dying in Crosby township in 1831. His son James also worked for a time at blacksmithing here, and then became a teacher - one of the first in point of both time and reputation, in Hamilton county. He was also a civil engineer. He removed to Crosby township, where he was justice of the peace for several years, and was one of the founders, in 1803, of the Whitewater Congregational church at New London, Butler county. He died of cholera in 1834. His numerous descendants still reside in Crosby township.
