Born in New York City of newly arrived English parents, his parents soon moved to Erie, PA. His mother, Sarah Elizabeth Berkley Scott (See her grave in this cemetery, Section 2sgl, Row D, grave 21}, died when he was eight months old. His father, Thomas Stanley Scott, was a pattern maker, and eventually a piano factory foreman in New Castle, Indiana. After several moves and jobs, he, his father, and his younger half brother, returned to Erie, where his father died in 1918 of pernicious anemia. Both his stepmother, Vinnie Viola (Graham) Scott, and his half brother, Stanley Alewishus Scott, preceded him in death. Their graves may also be found in this cemetery.
William Thomas Scott worked at the Gen. Elec. Co. for 35 years and retired as a supervisor of locomotive billing, managing one other man and twenty-two women. His retirement at age 62 was partly precipitated by office computerization. During this time, he married a fellow employee, Edna Marie Crawford, and raised a boy, William Crawford, and a girl, Lois Berkley Scott Teufel. He lived to see his daughters three children (Barbara Ellen, Mark , and David Scott) and his sons two children (Susan Jeanette and Alan Curtis). He died of advanced angina and heart failure while being cared for at his daughters home. He was a 5' 1" tall, life-long episcopalian, an active mason, and a responsible family man of mild manner and high integrity.
He was a member of the Masonic Keystone Lodge 455 F.&A.M., and the Scottish Rite Bodies, Valley of Erie.
