Census1840*1840 George Irwin was the head of the household in the 1840 census, Liberty Twnshp, Wabash Co., Indiana, with "In the 1840 census I can't find George Ervin anywhere in Franklin or Fayette Co. It wasn't until I started looking into this Scott family that I find a "George Ervin" living in Liberty Twp Wabash Co. Ind. of around the same age living with a female of the same age as Charlotte Scott and with a boy under five. George and Charlotte had a son in 1839 named Jonathan Ervin. Who I believe is a possible namesake to thier neighbor and her possible relative Jonathan Scott. I believe all of the Scotts on this page came from Fayette Co with Carolina connections. My only other clue is Charlotte's 1880 census record listing both parents as from North Carolina. It's not proof but I feel they are strong clues." (note, indexed as Errin but clearly Ervin in census).2
