Wilmot's father James settled in Granville Co. NC. In 1764, that part of it
became Bute ( Map), and finally
Warren in 1779 ( Map).
Bute was name of the Prime Minister of King George III and the residents did not
like that so they split up Bute County into Franklin and Warren Counties. |

Wilmot was only about two months old when his father died. He was named for his
uncle William Wilmot Egerton, 1748-1815, youngest son of
John Egerton and
Elizabeth Nicholson Egerton. |
