Commemorative Biographical Record of Central Pennsylvania: pp. 100-101"
"(THE) RANKIN FAMILY of Centre County, of which William B. Rankin, of Bellefonte, is a worthy and respected representative, is of old Pennsylvania stock. The first of the line to settle in Centre County was William Rankin, the grandfather of the gentleman named, and a native of Franklin County, Penn., born November 5, 1770. He took a prominent place among the pioneers of this section, and was the second sheriff of Centre County, and from 1806 to 1810 a member of the State Legislature. His residence was in Spruce Creek Valley, where he died November 29, 1847, at the age of seventy-seven years. By his first wife, a Miss Maginley, he had eight children: (1) William M. and (2) James Munsey were prominent physicians, the former of Shippensburg, Penn., and the latter of Muncy, Penn.; (3) Joseph Alexander is mentioned more fully below; (4) Abigail married Ephraim Bailey, and now resides in Kossuth. Iowa; (5) Adam, deceased, was a farmer at Stormstown, Penn.; two daughters, Mary and Elizabeth, died unmarried.
"By a second marriage (the last time), with Miss Huston, there was one daughter, Susannah, who died in early womanhood.
"The late Joseph Alexander Rankin, father of William B. Rankin, was reared upon a farm in Penn's Valley, at Centre Hill, near Potters Mills, the district schools of the vicinity furnishing the usual educational opportunities, of which he made the utmost, preparing himself for teaching..."
This sketch mentions eight children by William's first wife, but only names seven of them. The prevailing theory seems to be that John McGinley Rankin was the missing eighth child, which seems logical from the names and dates involved.
