I have added you to the trusted list for Ernest Scott. Bess Simmons (his wife) was my grandmother's sister. We have pictures of some of the family and a few newspaper clippings. Once I get my father's photograph notebooks from my sister (she's using them for a blog she's been working on), I can send you digital copies if you like??? If there are other profiles you need access to, just say the word. Would you like to take over profile manager for Ernest Scott so that you have the family?? I don't mind. Teresa Fortenberry
