"The estate of John Scott of Wallingford, 8 Dec. 1713, was ordered distributed in eight equal shares, to Edmund, Samuel, George, David, Jonathan, and Robert Scott, Sarah wife of Roger Terrill, and Robert Risden. There is here something of mystery. The six Scotts were brothers, sons of the first Edmund Scott of Farmington (prob. by his second wife Elizabeth (Fuller) Upson). They had a seventh brother, Joseph, who d. at Farmington in 1708, and was prob. father of the John whose estate was distributed. They had also two sisters (prob. half-sisters) on the paternal side, as well as Upson half-brothers and sisters on the maternal side, who are not mentioned in the distribution, showing that only John's uncles and aunts of the 'whole blood' participated. It would appear likely that Mrs. Terrill and Robert Risden, who participated, were connected on the side of John Scott's mother. As a tentative hypothesis, Robert Risden's sister Sarah m. Roger Terrill of Woodbury; Mary Risden or another sister m. Joseph Scott and was mother of John. While possible, this theory is far from proved."[2]
