Levi Scott (bishop)
Levi Scott (born October 11, 1802) was an American Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church, elected in 1852.
Birth, Family and Early Life
Scott was born near Cantwell's Bridge, now Odessa, Delaware. His parents were Methodists, his father a class-leader and Local preacher who entered the Itinerant Ministry of the Philadelphia Annual Conference of the M.E. Church in 1803. He died the following year.
He labored on a farm until his sixteenth year, when he began a mechanical occupation. He was converted to Christ in 1822 and united with the Church.
Ordained Ministry
After great hesitation, and under a thorough conviction of duty, he accepted a License to Preach in 1825. The following year he was received into the Philadelphia Conference.
Scott was appointed, successively, to Talbot, Dover, St. George's Charge, Philadelphia, and West Chester. In 1832, on account of impaired health, he received the supernumerary relation. The following year he was able to resume his work. In 1834, he was unexpectedly appointed Presiding Elder of the Delaware District.
Levi Scott (Oregon politician)
Levi C. Scott (1797–1890) was a politician in the Oregon Territory of the United States in the 1850s. A native of Illinois, he was a captain during the Cayuse War, helped lay the Applegate Trail, served in the Oregon Territorial Legislature, and in 1857 was a member of the Oregon Constitutional Convention. Scott also founded Scottsburg, Oregon, and is the namesake for several natural features in Southern Oregon.
Early life
Levi Scott was born on February 8, 1797, in what would become the state of Illinois. He was married and had two children, and by 1844, he had moved to Iowa and was living in Burlington. In May 1844, Levi and his son John Scott (b. 1828) immigrated to what was then Oregon Country and settled near Dallas, Oregon.
Political career
In 1846, Scott, along with his son, as well as Jesse Applegate, Lindsay Applegate and others, set off to create a southern route into the Willamette Valley. The route authorized by the Provisional Government of Oregon would travel southwest from Fort Hall and take the Rogue Valley and Umpqua Valley before turning north to the Willamette Valley settlements. This Southern Route has become known as the Applegate Trail.
