Early lifeWalter Jervoise Scott was born on 3 April 1835, the son of James Winter Scott and his wife Lucy (née Jervoise).[2] Valley of LagoonsThe Valley of Lagoons Station was established in 1862 after the area was opened up by the government. A partnership formed between Walter Jervoise Scott, his brother Arthur, George Elphinstone Dalrymple and Robert Herbert (then Premier of Queensland) financed the acquisition of the leasehold. The partnership became Scott Bros, Dalrymple & Company with Dalrymple acting as manager. Walter Scott overlanded stock from the Darling Downs to the property shortly afterward.[3] Later lifeScott died at Valley of Lagoons on 29 June 1890. A large granite monument was sent from Great Britain by his brothers intended for his grave at Valley of Lagoons. On arrival at Cardwell, it was found to be too large to transport up the rough track to Valley of Lagoons, so it was erected in Cardwell instead.[1][4] References1. ^1 {{cite web|last=Bolton|first=G.
