About Charles Scott

Major General Charles Scott was an American military officer and politician who served as the governor of Kentucky from 1808 to 1812. Orphaned in his teens, Scott enlisted in the Virginia Regiment in 1755 and served in the French and Indian War, rising through the ranks to become a captain. After the war, he married and settled down to life as a farmer, but returned to active military service in 1775 as the Revolutionary War neared. In 1776, Scott was made the 5th Virginia Regiment's colonel, serving under George Washington in the Philadelphia campaign. Furloughed in 1779, Scott soon returned to active service and went to South Carolina to assist General Benjamin Lincoln. He arrived in Charleston just as British forces had begun besieging it. Captured when the city fell, Scott was exchanged in 1782, completing several recruiting assignments before the war's end in 1783.
