He was appointed Judge of the Superior Court and served with justice and honor. He married Miss Leticia Carter, daughter of William Franklin and Cora Carter of "Eagle Falls". Their children were: Frank Carter, William Nelson III, Ann Wilson, Galloway, Robert Jesse, David Cummings and Cora Galloway. After twenty or more years in Wentworth, this family moved to Madison and lived in the Mebane home here. This home was one of true refinement and Christianity. Judge Mebane with all his family attended every service of the church, all sitting together in one pew. All of the family were good looking, tall, slender, graceful, blond with patrician features. They were attractive individually and collectively.
