He was married in 1849 to Susan Mobley, daughter of Solomanand Elizabeth Mobley (Vol.I). She was born June 3, 1829, in ApplingCounty. Born to Daniel and Susan Lott were six children.
Soon after marriage, Daniel Lott studied Dentistry and was licensedand practiced his profession at Wareboro until 1871. In November, 1871,he moved to the present site of the city of Waycross, where he hadacquired a large tract of land; this was about the time of the completionof the line of railroad from Brunswick to Albany, completion of whichwestward from Waresboro had been held up for several years because of thewar. Dr. Lott conceived the possibility of a town where this railroadand the Altantic & Gulf (from Savannah to Thomasville) crossed. Therehad been a stop there on the latter line, called No. 9 or Tebeauville,but the crossing of the two roads was a mile northeast from the No.9station. The developing of the town-site of Waycross, its name andgrowth, is another subject; it will suffice to state here Dr. Lott becameknown as the founder of Waycross, an inportant railroad junction.

He wasSheriff, 1847-48; Representative fron Ware County, 1851-52; State Senatorfrom Ware, 1853-54; Justice of Ware Inferior Court, 1853-56 and again1865-67; Judge of the County Court, 1867-68; Ordinary Ware County,1856-58, and again 1868-71; and ex-officio Justice of Peace, 1231stdistrict, 1868-69. he became the first Mayor of Waycross when it wasincorporated.

His death occurred June 24, 1880, at a time when he was activelyidentified with the promoting and building of the presentWaycross-Jacksonville railroad, called at first "The Waycross Air-Line".His widow survived and died July 16, 1892.
