We are planning for a wonderful
Scott – McGill Family Reunion
July 16 – 19, 2026
in beautiful Norfolk & Virginia Beach, Virginia

Over the summer a group of descendants of Rina Elizabeth Scott and Samuel Garfield McGill came together to plan the 2026 Scott – McGill Family Reunion happening Thursday, July 16 – Sunday, July 19, 2026, in Norfolk & Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Our reunion will be focused on getting to know each other, learning and sharing our family’s history, fellowship and doing enjoyable activities together. This will be a weekend of activities for our family to meet, reunite, network, commemorate, discover, learn and have fun. We will have a Meet & Greet with a family museum, a Cookout with fun activities, a Sneaker Ball at a beautiful Downtown Norfolk location and a Farewell Breakfast before we get on the road.

Who are we… We are the descendants and relatives of our ancestors Rina Elizabeth Scott and Samuel Garfield McGill who lived near Andrews in areas called Turkey and Mingo and the town of Kingstree in Williamsburg County, South Carolina. Some of us live in the Kingstree area while others migrated before, during and after the Great Migration to other parts of South Carolina, Rochester, NY, Baltimore, MD, Washington, DC, North Carolina, Seattle/Takoma area, WA, Florida, and many other cities and states.

In addition to Scott and McGill our surnames include: Alston, Boyd, Bradley, Brown, Bull, Chandler, Cooper, Cunningham, Davis, Dozier, Duke/Dukes, Dunmore, Ferrell, Flagler, Ford, Francis, Fulmore, Fulton, Gadson, Gamble, Giles, Gray, Griffin, Hannah, Jackson, Jamison, Johnson, Jones, Lee, McClary, McCray, McCullough, McFadden, Middleton, Mitchum, Parker, Parson, Perkins, Peterson, Rich, Richardson, Seaward/Seward, Sharp, Shaw, Singletary, Taylor, Tisdale, Turner, Washington, White, Wilmot and many other surnames from Williamsburg County and the surrounding area.

We continue to research the lives of our ancestors. If you have any family information you would like to share please contact Vicki McGill.
