Name Took oath in what public position? "Engaged" in insurrection how? Public position when disqualified Mechanism of disqualification Deciding body Court Review Convicted of a crime? Year Notes Kenneth H. Worthy County Sheriff Held local office in a Confederate state. Worthy was not accused of engaging in violence. County Sherriff
