Judith Starbuck was born October 10, 1734, on Nantucket Island, Massachusetts,
(or Aug. 10, 1734).(1) She was the daughter of William Starbuck and Anna Folger.(2)(3)
William Starbuck was born July 22, 1699 on Nantucket Island, Nantucket,
Massachusetts and died October 17, 1760. (4) (5) (6) (7) He married Anna Folger
September 10, 1720. Anna Folger was born May 25, 1703, on Nantucket Island,
Nantucket, Massachusetts and died September 6, 1748. (8) (9) (10) (11)
Judith Starbuck married Joseph Worth Junior on December 6, 1753, on Nantucket
Island, Massachusetts.(12) Joseph Worth was born on the island of Nantucket,
Massachusetts, 29th 9 mo. 1729, the son of Joseph and Lydia (Gorham) Worth.(13) He
died in New Garden, Guilford County, North Carolina, before May 1816, the date his
will was proved.(14)
Joseph and Judith Worth may have gone to Barrington, Nova Scotia, around 1762
for a Joseph Worth was listed there as an American Protestant with a wife, one boy and
two girls when the census was taken in 1770.(15) If so, they returned to Nantucket about
1773.
Alexander Starbuck, in his History of Nantucket, states that this family "removed
from the Island 29th 9 mo. 1774," before the start of the Revolutionary War.(16) On 23
September 1774, a few days before they left, Joseph Worth, Junior, weaver, and his wife
Judith, of Sherborn, with Joseph Macy, blacksmith, and his wife, Mary, and with
another heir, Jethro Starbuck, sold to Jethro Mitchell, cooper, land which had been
given to them by their father, William Starbuck.(17)
On 24 September 1774, Joseph and Judith Worth with their brother-in-law and
Judith's sister, Joseph and Mary Macy, sold to William Rotch, merchant, of Sherborn,
another piece of land devised to them by their father, William Starbuck.(18) On the
same day Joseph and Judith Worth sold to Jonathan Burnell, merchant, a share of land
"and the remaining two-fifths part is to remain to the use of our mother-in-law, Lydia
Pinkham, during her natural life."(19) Lydia Pinkham was the step-mother of Judith
(Starbuck) Worth and Mary (Starbuck) Macy, whose father, William Starbuck, had
married second, Lydia Coleman who, after William's death had married Theophilus
Pinkham.(20) In a final transaction, 8 October 1774, two weeks after the date given by
Starbuck for their move to North Carolina, Joseph and Judith Worth and Joseph and
Mary Macy jointly sold to William Hussey, merchant, 1/18th of one share in the Old
North Warf.(21)
Joseph and Judith Worth were Quakers. They were received as members of the
Center Monthly Meeting in Guilford County, North Carolina, 20th 9 mo. 1774.(22) On
January 21, 1776, records show the marriage of their daughter, Eunice Worth, to
William Wilson, and on November 27, 1777, their daughter, Matilda Worth, married
Latham Folger.(23)
When the southern part of Guilford was cut away to form Randolph County in
1779, Joseph Worth and his eldest son, Jethro, called "single," were recorded on the first
tax list. Most of the Quakers, including Joseph and Jethro, refused to turn in an
inventory of their property but their names were included anyway.(24) In spite of
having been listed on the Randolph County tax roll in 1779, the minutes of the Guilford
County Court for 1784 state that Joseph Worth, "an infirm person," was exempted from
paying poll-tax "from year to year."(25) When the U. S. Census for 1790 was taken,
Joseph Worth was listed in Hillsborough District, Randolph County, North Carolina, as
head of a family of four males and two females.(26)
On October 7, 1796. Joseph and Judith Worth were called "of Randolph County"
when the New Garden Monthly Meeting recorded the marriage of their son, Silas
Worth, to Matilda Macy.(27) In the spring of 1806 Joseph Worth, called "of Randolph,
North Carolina, yeoman," and Judith, his wife, gave their power of attorney to Matthew
Starbuck, trader, of Guilford, to sell property they owned on Nantucket, described as
one-thirty-sixth part of a share in the Old Straight Wharf.(28)

The First Five Generations Documented Descendants Through his first child Desire2 Howland
and her husband Captain John Gorham, on pages 729 and 730 states the following:

JUDITH STARBUCK (#81), MOTHER OF CHARLES WORTH
This is a very well documented file. Again, I have the same misgivings about
clustering the footnote numbers (1, 2, 3, 4 etc.)
You have a nice variety of documents for Judith Starbuck and Joseph Worth, Jr.
The deeds are an excellent source for estimating their departure form Nantucket
to North Carolina. You have the material from John Howland of the Mayflower.
Obviously, from what you wrote, The General Society of Mayflower
Descendants is comfortable with the material submitted by Elizabeth Pearson
White and John L. German.
Regarding footnotes 22, 22: Quakers kept really good records. You are fortunate
to have them. Judith is named in her husbands will.
Regarding footnote 31: Son Charles Worth was named in his fathers will as well
that is an excellent document!
Regarding footnote 24: I understand that Joseph and Jethro were entered into the
first tax list of Randolph County; does it state somewhere in that record that they
refused to inventory their property? Is this assumption, or is there some record
referring to their refusal?
I know it is nit-picky of me (thats why you hire me!), but in the lengthy quote from
John L. German, fifth line, the sons of Joseph worth, you need a capital W
unless it is being quoted verbatim from Mr. German or some document that uses
a lower-case w.
The very last document from this file from the Nantucket Historical Association,
with its accompanying letter, just cinches your entire proof of this file. Is this a
court record, or some handwritten document done later? A Bible record? I cant
tell from the image.
CONCLUSION: Based on the documents discussed, you have more than proved
that Judith Starbuck and Joseph Worth were a married couple. They were
certainly recognized as such by the Quaker records, through Nantucket records,
and Joseph refers to his wife Judith in his well-written, concise will. In your
discussion of the deeds for property sold prior to their departure for North
Carolina, you state that Joseph and Judith Worth sold property together.
Therefore, the courts certainly recognized her as his legal wife. Charles Worth is
named as their son in his fathers will.
