Elizabeth (Mort) Ainsworth (b. 1818 – d. 1877) was married September 4, 1848 in Bury, England to William Henry Ainsworth (b. 1824 – d. 1867). She was the daughter of George (b. 1792 – d. 1902) and Elizabeth (Plumb) Mort (b. 1777 – d. 1906). She and William Henry Ainsworth had eight children, of which George Arnold Ainsworth (b. 1851 – d. 1925) was the third child.
George Arnold Ainsworth (b. 1851 – d. 1925) was born near London, England, March 28, 1851. He came to the United States at age 15, living first in Utah for several years. He married Emily Jane (Worthen) (b. 1851 – d. 1931) in Salt Lake City and together they drove a wagon to the Walnut Creek district near Prescott, Arizona. They were among the first settlers to homestead. He gained a wide reputation as a rancher and stockman and was known as the “cabbage king of Arizona” from his remarkable success in raising cabbage as well as other vegetables. He was a regular visitor to Prescott, bringing in produce to supply the Prescott markets. He also was a judge in the Walnut Creek district during territorial days.
