The Worthington families in these areas were known for their involvement in agriculture and land ownership. They were respected members of their communities and played active roles in local affairs.
Over time, some Worthington families from Ireland emigrated to other parts of the world, including the United States and Canada. Today, there are Worthington descendants of Irish heritage residing in various countries around the globe.
