Although the town wasn't incorporated until 1921, its history dates back to the 1830s, when it was dubbed Gary's Mill after an early pioneer. (The name still exists in a two mile stretch of road.) In 1873, the town assumed its current designation from Winfield Scott, a U.S. Army general and Whig Party candidate for president in 1852.
