While Mr. Ragan has passed the "three score and ten years," yet he is a very active man, having a wonderful constitution. He can do more work now than most of the young people.
HON. LEVI M. SCOTT was born in Rockingham County, North Carolina, June 8, 1827. In early childhood he accompanied his parents to Guilford County, and his preliminary schooling was obtained in the schools of the latter county. Leaving school at the age of twenty, he began his active career as a school-teacher, and at about the same time took up the study of law. In 1850 he was appointed postmaster at Greensboro, N. C., and held that office for about three years. In 1852 he was licensed to practice, and a year later received the election as Clerk of the Superior Court, and held that office until 1856. In the latter year, Mr. Scott was elected to represent his county in the State Legislature, and served a term of two years. In 1858 he was elected Solicitor of Guilford County, and for two terms of four years each most satisfactorily discharged the duties of the important position.
He was appointed as receiver of sequestrated property by the Confederate Governemnt in 1862, and was retained in that capacity until the close of the War, his duties having been to collect all debts owing Northern creditors from Southern debtors, for the benefit of the Confederate States.

After the termination of hostilities between the North and South, Mr. Scott devoted himself exclusively to the practice of his chosen profession at Greensboro, and his indefatigability is illus- trated by the fact that during the long period of fifty years he has practiced at the courts of the Fifth Judicial District he never failed to be in attendance at the various sessions.
He served as a member of the Board of Directors of the State Penitentiary from 1885 until 1889.
As a lawyer he has won a name of which he may be proud. Dignified and able, his opinions carry weight wherever promul- gated, and his reputation as a man of the most rigid integrity but add to his fame as a distinguished lawyer and citizen.
Mr. Scott has been most happy in his domestic relations, hav- ing been united in marriage to Miss Mary E. Weatherly in 1861. Mrs. Scott was a daughter of Mr. Andrew Weatherly, of Greens- boro, N. C. Two children have been born to this blessed union, the surviving one being Mrs. Lily Scott Reynolds, now living in East Orange, N. J.
Mr. Scott is a prominent member of the I. O. O. F., and in 1866 held the high honor of Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of the State of North Carolina.'
John D. Scott, his father, was born in Guilford County, N. C., in 1800. He was given a common school education, and then gave his attention to agriculture, and was engaged in planting all his life. He served as Colonel in the North Carolina Cavalry for many years, and held his commission until the breaking out of the Civil War, being then sixty-one years of age. In 1824 he married Miss Jane McLean, a daughter of Marshall McLean, of Guilford County, N. C., and three children were the offspring of the mar- riage, their names being: Allan H., of Guilford County, N. C .; Levi M., of Greensboro, N. C., and William L. Scott, who died in 1872. The father died in 1880, his wife having preceded him to rest in 1845. John D. Scott was the son of Adam Scott, who was a native of Guilford County, N. C., where he was born in 1772. His

demise occurred in 1837. He was a planter all his life. His father was Thomas Scott, a Pennsylvanian, who emigrated to North Carolina in early manhood, and settled in Guilford County. The ancestors of the Hon. Levi M. Scott on the paternal side were from the north of Ireland, and on the maternal side came from Scotland.
We think it only right and proper in speaking of those con- ditions that have made Greensboro what it is, to call attention to a few of the men who have been identified with its phenomenal growth, and standing in the front ranks of these, Mr. L. M. Scott holds a most enviable position as one of the leaders of his profes- sion, as "Nestor" of the bar of Guilford County, and a gentleman of the old school. Mr. Scott is one whom to know is to admire and respect.
W. L. Scott, brother of L. M., was licensed in 1856. Shortly after being admitted to the bar he moved to Georgia and formed a law partnership with Benjamin H. Hill. Their law partnership was cemented by a warm personal friendship which existed be- tween Mr. Scott and the gifted orator and unimpeachable states- man of Georgia, until the death of the former in 1872. Return- ing from Georgia, Mr. Scott formed a co-partnership with his brother, L. M. Scott, under the firm name of Scott & Scott. This was the first instance in the State where relatives of the same surname had used the same jointly when a partnership existed between them. Prior to that time the style was "Richard Doe & Son," or "Richard Doe & Bro.," as the case might be. The ex- ample of Messrs. Scott found many followers, and now the style is in common use.
W. L. Scott was a ready debater and very popular with the masses. In 1870 he was a candidate for Congress, but was de- feated by General James Leach, a strong candidate. He served as Colonel in the Twenty-first North Carolina Volunteers in 1861 and 1863.

GUILFORD COUNTY,
SKETCH OF THE RANKIN FAMILY OF GUILFORD COUNTY.
The Rankins of Guilford County descend from two brothers, John and William, who came from that part of Ireland settled by the Scotch in the reign of James I., and were therefore Scotch- Irish Presbyterians. They first came to Pennsylvania not later than 1760 and possibly as early as 1750. The exact time of their coming to Guilford County is not known, but in 1765, John, the older brother, bought 511 acres of land lying on the waters of North Buffalo, from Alexander McKnight. A descendant of his, Robert Rankin, still living, owns a part of this land, and his title is derived from John, Earl of Granville. In 1772, John sold a part of this land, now known as the Calvin Rankin tract, to his younger brother, 'William.
John Rankin was born in Ulster County, Ireland, in 1736, came to Guilford about 1764, married Hannah Carson, and died March 27, 1814. He was buried by the side of his wife, Hannah, in the northwest corner of Buffalo Church graveyard. The issue of this marriage was eight daughters and three sons, as follows : Rebecca, Jane, Abby, Samuel, Joseph, Hannah, Mary, Margaret, Robert, Ann, Ruth.
Rebecca married John Rankin, possibly a distant relative of hers, and moved to Tennessee.
Jane married John Paisley. To them were born: Celilah, who married George Donnell; Hannah, who married a Mr. Shaw ; Rebecca, who married a Mr. Shaw, and Elizabeth, who married James Gannon.
Abby Rankin married Cunningham Smith, and moved to the West.
Samuel Rankin married Mary Scott and had issue: John, who married and moved to Cabarrus County ; Rebecca, who mar- ried Calvin McLeon; Hannah, who married Rankin Donnell; Margaret, who married Dr. Scott, father of J. W. Scott, of Greens- boro; and Nancy, who married Rhoddy Hanna.
Joseph, fifth child of John Rankin, married Mary Donnell,

by whom he had issue as follows: Barzella, who married Robert Woodburn, the father of Mrs. W. S. Moon; John C., who married Betsy Denny, daughter of Thomas Denny; Persis, who married Jane Gilmer ; James Edmundson, who married and moved West; Rhuhama, who married a Mr. Thom; Samuel, who married a sister of Rev. C. H. Wiley, by whom he had three children- Joseph, killed in the Civil War; William C., and Alice.
By second marriage with Nancy Donnell, he had two chil- dren-Thomas, father of A. L. Rankin, and Mary, who married Washington Wharton.
Hannah, sixth child of John Rankin, married Thomas Denny. Issue of this marriage: Eli, Samuel, Hannah, Thomas, Bettie, Nancy, John, Peggy, George.
Mary, seventh child, married Thomas Donnell. Issue : Ran- kin, Hester, Vinnie.
Margaret, eighth child, married John Nelson, to whom were born Samuel, Mary, Ann and Melinda.
Robert Rankin, ninth child of John Rankin, by marriage with Margaret Scott, had the following children : William S., who mar -. ried Elizabeth Paisley ; Hannah, who married Lear Donnell; John Calvin, who married a daughter of William Rankin, by whom he had four children ; Jane, who married W. P. Wharton; William, who married Mildred Dick; John, who married a daughter of Rankin Smith; and Fannie, unmarried.
Adam, fifth child of Robert Rankin, married Louisa Kerr.
Thomas Rankin, sixth child of Robert, married a daughter of William Rankin, by whom he had two children-W. H. Rankin and Nannie. By second marriage with Nancy Wharton, he had one son, Alpheus, who married Zula Smith, and three daughters- Eva, who married Cyrus Wharton; Louisa, who married Lacy Paisley, and Minnie, who married Myrom Newell.
Rebecca, sixth child of Robert, married John C. Wharton, of Greensboro.
By second marriage, with Margaret Patterson, Robert Ran-
186
GUILFORD COUNTY,
kin had three children-Capt. N. P. Rankin, Robert Rankin and Capt. Samuel Rankin, who died in Fayetteville, N. C. These sons by his last marriage all married and have raised families.
William Rankin, brother of John Rankin, Sr., was born in Ireland in 1744 and with his brother John emigrated to America between 1750 and 1760, stopping a while in Pennsylvania, and afterwards came with the Scotch-Irish movement into this county about 1764. Both he and his brother John were ardent Whigs and were hated by Governor Tryon and his adherents for their strong Americanism. After the Battle of Alamance, William, who was present, was declared an outlaw by Governor Tryon and, with fif- teen others, had to keep in hiding till Tryon left the State. Just before the Battle of Guilford Courthouse, Lord Cornwallis evinced his hatred by camping on the plantations of John and William Rankin and destroying nearly all that was destructible.
In 1873 he married Jane, daughter of Elizabeth and John Chambers. He died February 9, 1804, and was buried along with his wife and wife's father and mother in Buffalo Church grave- .yard. To them were born four sons and five daughters-Betsy, Nancy, Sallie, John, Ann, Thomas, Jane, Robert and William, the last two twins.
Betsy married Elam Wharton. Nancy married John School- field, to whom were born Betsy, Sarah (who married Samuel Hat- rick), Joseph, William, Jane, John, Nancy, Daniel, Samuel.
John Chambers, fourth child of William, was born March 29, 1781, married Tabitha Wharton, daughter of Watson Wharton, Sr., and died June 6, 1858. Issue of this marriage: Jesse, Jane, Martha, William (who died young), Malinda, Watson, John C., Tabitha and Samuel.
Ann married Samuel Donnell and had one child, Emsley Don- nell.
Thomas, sixth child of William, married Martha McQuistian. Issue of this marriage : Albert, Moses, Elizabeth, Lavina, William, Nancy, Robert, Pollie.

Jane Rankin, seventh child of William, married Eli Smith. Issue : Madison, William Rankin and Nancy.
Robert Rankin, eighth child of William, married Sarah Lee. Issue : John C., Jane, William, Emily, Alfred and Greene.
William, ninth child of William, Sr., and twin brother of Robert, married Thankful Smith. Issue of this marriage : Hannah and Nancy.
The descendants of the brothers, John and William, now found in this county and in three-fourths of the States of the Union, now number .over one thousand souls. The immediate descendants of the two brothers, William and John, lived at a period and under conditions that "tried men's souls." They "sought out, wrought out and fought out" their way in the new world, making history but leaving little record of it. On every battlefield from Alamance to Appomattox descendants of these brothers have been found, struggling for what they believed to be right.
SKETCH OF THE WHARTON FAMILY OF GUILFORD COUNTY.
Watson Wharton, Sr., the progenitor of the Wharton family of this county and of more than a thousand others, who lived or have lived in nearly every Southern State and in many of the Northern States, was born in England, perhaps in the town of Wharton, June 22, 1746.
His father, Hinman, and mother, Mary, were born, accord- ing to statistics found in an old famliy Bible, now scarcely legible, about two hundred years ago, and were married about 1729. Save the names and date of birth, nothing is known of Watson Whar- ton's brothers and sisters. Their names are as follows :
Elizabeth Wharton, born September 29, 1731; David Whar- ton, born April 27, 1733 ; Mary Wharton, born July 30, 1735; Hin- man Wharton, born December 20, 1737; Catherine Wharton, born August 30, 1740; Rhoda Wharton, born January 18, 1742.
As there are numerous branches of the Wharton family in
188
GUILFORD COUNTY,
the United States not directly traceable to Hinman or his son Wat- son, it is not improbable that they may have a common origin further back in the twilight of the past. There are families of Whartons living in Virginia, Texas and Tennessee who trace their line back to Lord Thomas Wharton, who in 1622 was Lord Lieu- tenant of Ireland. In history he was called "Veto Tom" and sometimes "Lying Tom." One of his descendants, Phillip Whar- ton, was one of Cromwell's generals.
It matters little whether Watson Wharton was descended from "Lying Tom" or not. That his descendants, wherever found, have been and are in the main honest, industrious, independent, God-fearing, patriotic citizens, who have made the world better for living in it, is a matter of far greater import than to be able to trace their origin back to a "belted knight," who seems to have been somewhat careless in handling the truth. In the language of Scotland's greatest bard :
*"A King can make a belted Knight. A marquis, duke and a' that, But an honest man's aboon his might Gude faith he mauna f'a' that- The rank is but the guinea's stamp, The man's the gowd for a' that."
On attaining his majority, Watson Wharton came to America about 1767 and settled at first in Maryland, where he married a lady whose maiden name the writer of this sketch has been unable to ascertain. The issue of this marriage is as follows :
Elam, born 1770; Jesse, born 1771, died in infancy; Elisha, born 1774, died aged nearly 90 years; Tabitha, born 1776, died 1855; John, who married a daughter of William Rankin and moved to Tennessee more than sixty years ago; Gideon, born 1781, married Mary Woodburn and moved West; Martha, born 1783, married Arthur Woodburn, had five children-Watson, William, Elam, Emsley, Tabitha.
* I wonder a good deal about all these people in this book. I wonder also what are their traits. I will be likely to find out by the time I have sold the last copy. What I know then will be something of value, perhaps.

NORTH CAROLINA.
By a second marriage with Angeletta, nee Evans, he had one son, Evans, born 1785. Soon after the birth of his youngest son, Evans, he moved with his family to Guilford County, 1785 or 1786, and bought from Blackwood a tract of land acceded to him in 1755 by the Earl of Granville. W. P. Wharton, a great-grandson of Watson Wharton, now owns and lives on this same land.
Of his personal characteristics, little is known. Mr. David Wharton, a grandson, now in his ninety-ninth year, recalls that he was a man of almost giant proportions, weighing nearly three hundred pounds, that he was somewhat irascible and very much given to having his own way. In politics, he was a staunch Whig, in religion a Presbyterian, as have been nearly all his descendants. That he was a man of considerable means for those days is evi- dent from the large amount of lands purchased and the mortgages made to secure monies loaned by him. He died in 1813, and was buried in Buffalo churchyard.
Elam Wharton, his oldest son, married Betsy, oldest daughter of William Rankin, the progenitor of one branch of the Rankin family in this county. Issue of this marriage: Joseph, Jesse, Wil- liam, Lemuel, Robert, Jennie, Isabella, Martha.

THE WORTH FAMILY.
William Worth left England in the reign of Charles II. His great-grandson, Daniel Worth, was born in Massachusetts, second month, tenth, 1739; he died in Guilford County, North Carolina, seventh month, tenth, 1830. He was married in Nantucket to Eunice Hussey, a daughter of Paul and Sarah Hussey, a descend- ant of Sylvanus Hussey, whose wife was a daughter of Stephen Goram.
Joseph Worth was also married in Nantucket to Judith Star- buck. These people were the Nantucket settlers of Guilford County and their descendants have done much for civilization in North Carolina. Jonathan Worth, grandson of Daniel Worth of Nantucket stock, Governor of North Carolina, and Dr. David Worth were men of great influence in their day. Dr. John M. Worth was treasurer of North Carolina. His children were: Shubal G. Worth, Thomas C. Worth, Addie McAllister and Dell Bingham.
Governor Jonathan Worth's children have been men and women of integrity and strength-David G. Worth, Roxana Mc- Neil, Lucy J. Jackson, Elvira Moffit, Cora Jackson, Mary Worth and Addie Bagley. Worth Bagley, the young hero of the Cuban War, was the grandson of Governor Worth and therefore a repre- sentative of the Nantucket stock of Guilford County.
Daniel Worth, of Guilford County, was a man of affairs, a leader in the Society of Friends in the State, trustee of Guilford College.

William Worth was Treasurer of North Carolina for two terms preceding 1901.
Cyrus B. Watson, a leading lawyer in the State, is a descend- ant of the Worth family, and therefore a representative of the Nantucket stock in North Carolina.
John L. Worth, of Mount Airy, North Carolina, compiled a chart of this family in 1900. The Worth family is representative of the Nantucket in many instances from both father and mother, the Folgers, Gardners, Husseys, Macys, Porters, Starbucks are related by marriage to them. Their religious belief is that of the Society of Friends.
