A Methodist minister, Andrew was the son of Rev. William James Scott and Sarah Jane Rogers. He was born in Saline Arkansas.

He first married Mary D. Jones and later married Lou Sinquefield, with whom he had two children.

He died just weeks after the birth of his second child, a son. He and Lou Sinquefield already had a daughter named Med and named their son Fred. Upon the death of her husband, Lou changed her son's name to Andrew Soule Scott.

Still needing to rear her children, Lou moved in first with her parents, then with her brother, Calvin Sinquefield and relocated to Mississippi with him. She never remarried and Calvin remained faithful to the task of providing for Andrew's family until the children were grown. From these two children have come doctors, teachers and lawyers and at least one preacher, which would have made Andrew proud in spite of the fact he was a Baptist, not a Methodist.

ANDREW SOULE SCOTT was the son of Rev. William J. Scott, one of the venerable members of Little Rock Conference. He was born in 1858, and admitted into Conference in 1883. He traveled Mount Ida and Malvern Circuits his two first years; was junior preacher at Hot Springs his third year. A strenuous worker, he overtaxed himself, and was transferred to Los Angeles Conference, hoping to regain his health. He located in 1887: returned to Arkansas in 1889: and was readmitted into Little Rock Conference and sent to Fountain Hill Circuit. The next year he was assigned as junior preacher on Princeton Circuit, to attend Vanderbilt University. When he returned from the University, he was sent to Holly Springs Circuit, thence to Benton Station, thence to Carlisle and Hazen, thence to Junction City. Here he broke down, and in September passed to his reward.
