  HENRY WHARTON - LoveToKnow Article on HENRY WHARTON
The archbishop, who had a very high opinion of Wharton's character and talents, made him one of his chaplains, and presented him to the Kentish living of Sundridge, and afterwards to that of Chartham in the same county.
In 1689 he took the oath of allegiance to William and Mary, but he wrote a severe criticism of Bishop Burnet's History of the Reformation, and it was partly owing to the bishop's hostility that he did not obtain further preferment in the English church.
Wharton's most valuable work is his Anglia sacra, a collection of the lives of English archbishops and bishops, which was published in two volumes in 1691.

 Baron Wharton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It was created in 1544 by letters patent for Sir Thomas Wharton, who had previously served as a Member of Parliament for Cumberland in recognition of his victory at the Battle of Solway Moss.
His son Philip became Duke of Wharton, but the title was later forfeit when the Duke of Wharton was declared an outlaw, while his titles he inherited from his father became extinct upon his death.
The patent creating the peerage, however, was lost, and the House of Lords errorenously ruled that the barony was one created by writ and could therefore be passed down through the female line.

 Journal of Management: Another ceiling? Can males compete for traditionally female jobs? - includes appendix
Another reason may be tradition: management may have been seen as a male domain because, until recently, most managers and the majority of the work force in most jobs were male.
Wharton and Baron (1987) offered a different explanation: People prefer to work with others of the same gender, hence men would be more suitable to supervise men.
If the "same-sex preference" holds (that is, if males and females prefer and rate those of their own gender more highly) we would expect females to be considered more suitable to manage females.
