Woo-hoo!
Just found a whole passel of my Whortons in Navarro County, TX.
For years, I've looked for them as Whartons.
Apparently, Jeptha Whorton - son of Thomas Jefferson Wharton (1800-1894) - was the one of the children to change the spelling of the surname in my direct line.
So, they've been under my nose for a long time...

Jeptha H Whorton's (b 1818 in GA, d 19 Jan 1883 in Navarro Co., TX) household make-up is easy to track.
I host my family tree at Rootsweb. Here's the link for Jeptha Whorton, which contains my research notes on the entry.
