John Scott was born at Ladykirk in Berwickshire, where his father Alexander was the master gardener. After growing up at Ladykirk, John also became a gardener, like his father and several of his brothers. In 1891 he was working in Leith, near Edinburgh, and by 1898 he was at Polmont in Stirlingshire, where, at the age of 30, he married Agnes Simpson. They were still at Polmont Park in 1901, but have not yet been traced after 1901.
