Chronological:

Roberts
Thomas
Scalia
White
Jackson
Black
Roberts
Van DeVanter
McKenna
Harlan the greater


The surname Roberts is there twice, so am I correct in assuming you mean both John Roberts and Owen Roberts?
How on Earth anybody could consider Joseph McKenna one of the 10 best Justices is beyond me.....
