William H. Scott, 1833-1908
Druggist in Friendship, NY
W. H. Scott, known in the family as Uncle
Bill, was a merchant in Friendship, Allegany County, New
York.
The portrait was probably taken by his son Don Carlos Scott
(1869-1918).
Don was a photographer and demonstrator for Eastman Kodak
company in the early days of popular photography.
The drawing of the Brick Block in
Friendship, to the right, is taken from the Beers History of
Allegany County.
W. H. Scott's store is plainly labeled. He carried dry
goods, groceries and medicines, and had a lot of competition
from the other stores in the same block.
The Brick Block is on the north side of Main at the corner
of Depot.
