Hide Profile

W. D. Wharton (1840-1907) and his brother, John E. Wharton (1835-1916), were raised in Guilford County, N.C. During most of the Civil War, both men served in the Company K, 5th North Carolina Cavalry Regiment (later called the 63rd North Carolina Troops). After the war, W. D. Wharton appears to have returned to Guilford County, N.C., and married Mary Eliza Wharton (1840-1873). John E. Wharton moved to Texas and became a member of the faculty at Austin College in Sherman, Tex.
