George Scott (unknown - 1767) was British army officer stationed in Acadia who fought in Father Le Loutre's War and the French and Indian War. He first served 40th Regiment of Foot since 1746 and then became captain in 1751. In 1753 he took command of Fort Lawrence. He made contact with the spy Thomas Pichon. Scott relinquished command of Fort Lawrence in the autumn of 1754. Preparations were then being made for an attack on Beauséjour, and he was appointed to command one of the two battalions of Massachusetts troops. He played a considerable part in the brief siege. When Monckton departed Beausejour in November Scott was left in command in the Chignecto area.
