Family Tragedy

Scott's older brother, Nauman Steele Scott, III, (born 1945) died on January 8, 2002, four months after the death of their father, Judge Scott. Nauman, III, was a lawyer in New Orleans and co-owner with the third Scott brother, Arthur Hammond Scott (born 1950), of the former Black Top Records, which preserved much of the rhythm and blues music culture.

Judge Scott died a week after the 9-11 terrorist attacks in New York City, Washington, D.C., and the Pennsylvania countryside. Mrs. Blanche Scott preceded Judge Scott in death by sixteen years.
