Scott was the youngest of the 11 siblings. The first thing he had he owned that hadn't been handed down was a horse that he named June. The next important thing of his own was his daughter, and he named her June as well. Scott lost his left hand while using a large table saw to cut wood when he was just 17 years old. He must have been about 18 in this picture.
