| 1357 |  | Joseph Worster – Convict – Link to the GWT? Joseph Worster was convicted of larceny at the Old Bailey on 30th January 1837, the offence being committed in Poplar in London: Details He was sentenced to transportation for seven years. His age at the time suggests he was fifteen and hence born in 1822, and this accords with most of the available data. However, a physical description of him suggests he was nineteen, which would put his DOB at 1818. He was kept on the prison hulk York at Gosport in Hampshire until 24th July when he was transferred to the Euryalus at Chatham. On 24th August he was transferred to the Royal Sovereign for transportation. This ship sailed from Sheerness on 31st August and arrived in Van Diemen’s Land (Tasmania) on 9th January 1838. Details Upon arrival, in his physical description (found at Tasmanian Names Index), it not only gives his age as 19, which would mean his DOB was around 1818, but it also gives his birthplace as High Wycombe which would very likely place him on the GWT. On the Bucks Baptisms the only Joseph of the right age is a Joseph Wooster baptised at All Saints in High Wycombe on 22 May 1820, parents Edward and Martha Wooster, Labourer. Edward and Martha are not currently on the GWT. In 1838 Joseph was sentenced to a "road party" for three months after being suspected of theft from his master’s house: Newspaper Article Joseph got his "ticket of leave" on 24th August 1842: Newspaper Article It is suspected that Joseph moved to South Australia after this and was freed on 30th January 1844, exactly seven years after his conviction. There are two possible further references to Joseph, although both have doubt attached to them. In 1850 he was cited as a creditor in a bankruptcy case, being owed £39: Newpaper Article and in 1952 he was fined £10 for supplying liquor to a native: The S. A. Government Gazette, July 15, 1852, pp. 424-426. Port Lincoln 13. March 25th, Joseph Worster, overseer, was brought up charged with giving spirituous liquor to Murpalta, an aboriginal native. He was fined ten pounds, and this extreme penalty was inflicted in consequence of his being an old and determined offender on the same score. My report of January, 1849, and the Record of the Court show as much; he continued the practice since that period, and in cases where natives only are witnesses, he possessed facilities for evading the law. | ||

| 1365 | | Kate Brandon and William Veitch From Rev. Brian Brandon Kate was born in Wanganui, the 11th child of Richard and Lucy Brandon, on the 11th of April, 1882. On the return from a trip to England to visit her sister, Edith and their aunts in Bournemouth, she met William Veitch who was coming out from Scotland to take up farming. He bought a place between Gisborne and Morere but this was sold when they married in 1907. They had three children, Bill, Richard and Helen. He then bought `Powha', the place where their family grew up. Somewhere around 1919-1920 `Powha' was sold, but it was then the slump came and the farm fell back into their hands. When Bill married and continued on the farm, they moved to Whitaker Street in Gisborne. When William died, Kitty built a small house at 16 Clifford Street to be closer to the town. Kitty was totally blind for the last four years, and for the last 7 - 8 months of her life as she deteriorated in her health she was cared for at the Chelsea Private Hospital. She died in Gisborne on the 16th of October, 1982, just six months after reaching her 100th birthday. |

| 1387 |  | Letter from George William Wooster to London Solicitors A letter from George William Wooster to London solicitors Lloyds, enquiring about the Brandon Estates. The letter is flood damaged and has been transcribed here, but some words are difficult to decipher. To Mesors Lloyd Dear Sirs, For some time past the different Brandon’s of our family have been meeting to discuss matters pertaining to property said to be held in the County Chancery. The famous Brandon Estates are said to be well known to lawyers in and around London. I through my mother am a direct descendant hence my desire to know and search out all matters pertaining thereto. My late mother was the daughter of Richard Brandon of Paradice, Rotherhithe. Now the families have been doctrine?? for in Dougal and Chambers next of kin. My mother’s name Henrietta Brandon nee Wooster. The property is said to be, area around Elephant and Castle, around St Paul’s churchyard, some in Sloan Street W, some in the Old Kent Road, some in the Strand. Some years ago Parker Troop? and Parker are said to have had some dealings with the Brandon Estates. Most of the families were christened at St Mary’s Rotherhithe or St James Bermondsey and some at the Parish Church Suffolk. Harriett Brandon was the Duchess of Brandon, Dansie. Sir William Brandon died suddenly in the House of Lords. I also hear that a special Bill of Equity was passed by the House of Lords in connection with the said estates. We are also informed that we are in a direct line of descendants from Charles Brandon Duke of Suffolk. Our crest is the dove and the olive branch. Mr Lloyd, I have given you the particulars, will you please make the necessary search and find out full particulars regarding this property also let me know what your terms are at the earliest as we are anxious to put it in motion. I remain Yours? G W Wooster |

| 1396 |  | Lower Farm Ilmer A pre-1960 picture of Lower Farm in Ilmer. Ann Wooster was the tenant here in 1839 prior to her second marriage (to John Eggleton). It is likely that George Wooster (Ann's grandson) in his Meriweather Vindicator article must have returned to visit Lower Farm, as he mentions the railway being built on the well. There aren't any other properties where that would have happened. Lower Farm in Ilmer became a Shell (Shellstar) demonstration farm between 1960 and 1984. Here is a photograph of the farm buildings pre-1960 in a state we would expect George Wooster to have recognised (but notice the tractor in the lower-left). The railway line can be seen in the background on the embankment. |
