2351 The 1939 Register wrongly claims year of birth as 1874 Wetherfield, Ann Eleanor (I134)
 
2352 The AngloBoerWar website gives two records, both in Kitchener's Fighting Scouts.

1. A J Worcester no. 26936: Demise: Died of disease - enteric fever 15 Apr 1901
Place: Klipkraal
Source: In Memoriam by S Watt

2. Arthur John Worcester no. 844: Served in 1st KFS. Joined Cape Town 14 Jan 01 died of wounds 15 Apr 01 Graaff Reinet
Source: Nominal roll in WO127.

It seems inconceivable that these two people are not the same person. 
Worcester, Arthur J (I36)
 
2353 The assumption that Ivor is the son of Robert and Esther is still tenuous, but given his middle name of Carroll and his residence on the Electoral Rolls being near Robert and Esther, it would seem very likely. Wooster, Ivor Carroll (I1381765)
 
2354 The attachment of Reginald to Edith as his mother is very tenuous. We are quite confident that Albert Edward Wooster and Annie Jane Laverton are his grandparents, but there are other possibilities as to who his parents could be. Wooster, Reginald George (I1335160)
 
2355 The baptism record claims 15 Jul as DOB, but the 1939 Register and the WW1 records claim 25 Jul. Wooster, Phoebe Eliza (I1562194)
 
2356 The birth and marriage dates don't really tally, so one of them is probably wrong. Baldwin, Sarah (I63)
 
2357 The birth index gives 1892. The death index states 1893 which is believed to be an error Dillon, Phyllis Mary (I181413)
 
2358 The birth record gives his name as Francis Henry Beard. We can only assume this to be an error since all subsequent documentation refers to him as Francis Edward Beard, Francis Edward (I1742689)
 
2359 The birth record indicates 29th July, but is likely to be a mis-transcription as the other sources say 24th Wooster, Theodore Frelinghuysen (I440)
 
2360 The birth was registered under the name Bellingers with mother's maiden name not given. This might indicate that Agnes was not the daughter of Charles. Wooster, Agnes (I00638)
 
2361 The cemetery was later needed for development of the Queen Victoria Market so bodies buried there were exhumed and removed to Fawkner Cemetery, a very large burial ground on the northern edge of the Melbourne area, and tombstones and memorials removed and erected there. Wooster, Thomas (I9)
 
2362 The Christening record transcription says 10th Jun, but the 1939 Register is clearly 19th. It is very likely that the Christening record is mis-transcribed. Wooster, William Alfred (I42)
 
2363 The date is given as 29 Feb. However, 1837 was not a leap year, so the most likely date is 1 Mar. Nicholls, Martha Basford (I50)
 
2364 The death certificate confirms that Sarah was the widow of George Wooster (a commercial traveller). In the 1861 census she was living with her sister-in-law Martha Kennedy and George Kennedy. Martha was George's sister and Sarah would only have been very recently widowed. We do not know Sarah's surname as no marriage record has been found, although she died back in Liverpool and the informant was a Hannah Thomas of the same address. It is possible that Hannah was a close relative of Sarah. ?, Sarah (I2105330)
 
2365 The death date and place is tentative, but the death index does fit with the birth index. Wright, Lily Mable (I762)
 
2366 The Death date might be the interment date Mullins, Sarah Rachel (I561)
 
2367 The death entry claims his DOB was 1855, but all other evidence points to Charles being born in 1857. Wooster, Charles Frederick (I24)
 
2368 The death index claims DOB as 15 Nov 1931, whereas the 1939 Register claims 11 Nov 1931 Wooster, Joan Sheila (I1026092)
 
2369 The death index entry suggests a YOB of ca. 1891. The entry also states her mother as being Caroline Smith rather than Quinn and her father as William Mullins. On her birth record he is given as John William Henry Mullins and her mother as Caroline Quin. The marriage record for her parents states them as John Mullins and Caroline Quin.
It also seems that her middle name of Rachel only appears on her death record.
All this does leave a small element of doubt about whether we have the right Sarah, but on balance this information would appear very likely to be correct.
Most of the inconsistencies are associated with the death record - perhaps someone unfamiliar with Sarah reporting the death? 
Mullins, Sarah Rachel (I561)
 
2370 The Death Index gives Emily's DOB as 6 Sep 1902 Wooster, Emily Rose (I1214002)
 
2371 The Death Index gives John's DOB as 10 May 1910 Cummings, John (I1214011)
 
2372 The Death Index gives Lillie's DOB as 27 Nov 1900, but we believe she was born on the 28th as evidenced by the 1939 Register and her school admission record. Wooster, Lillie (I1214001)
 
2373 The Death Index records his DOB as 12th Jun 1912 Parrett, Charles Edward (I686141)
 
2374 The Death Index records the name as George Ernest Worcester b. 1863. There is no corresponding birth entry for a George Ernest and no death entry for George Pharey Worcester. We believe this to be the same person. Worcester, George Pharey (I117)
 
2375 The death was registered in Croydon, most likely by his sister Sarah Margaret Hussey, Tyndall James Lord William (I181382)
 
2376 The DOB is probably 1815 rather than 1816 as quoted elsewhere. However, this assumes that the Christening record is correct. It does tie in with the location and the fact that William's father is given as Thomas on his marriage record to Susannah Avil Worster, William (I2)
 
2377 The DOB is tentative, but the death index does fit with the birth index. Wright, Lily Mable (I762)
 
2378 The family are called Wostear on the 1841 census. We believe they are the same family, since they are in the same area and Thomas is described as a "Polter".
After 1861, the family appear to use the spelling Woster, except for William Alfred, whose family consistently adopt the spelling Worster. 
Woster, Thomas (I1)
 
2379 The IGI quotes 1622 as the year of birth but he discrepancy in may be due to the Julian Calendar operating in England at the time. Wooster, Susan (I00332)
 
2380 The information here is tentative, but we believe this George Worcester is very likely to be the one who was a POW and assumed lost at sea. The Commonwealth War Graves Commission website confirms his name is George and gives two possible dates of death, 31st Oct or 14th Nov, and his age as 27, making his DOB ca. 1915.
The only George Worcester born in England around that time was this one born in Holborn. His mother was White and we believe therefore his parents are George William Worcester and Eliza White, married in Bethnal Green in 1914.
His parent's DOB are obtained tentatively from the 1939 Register. He is recorded as William G, but has been annotated as George W and his DOB has been annotated from 1892 to 1893 with the note (birth certificate seen).
They lived in Billaricay in Essex and he was a painter and decorator.
There are a few possibilities, but we believe the most likely continuation is William Worcester (b. 1863, house painter) & Hannah Wilkinson (b. 1862), then Henry John Worcester (b. 1840) & Sarah Gillard (b. 1844), then Richard Worcester (b. 1806) & Lucy Mary Jameson (b. 1815). All in the Bethnal Green/Tower Hamlets area. 
Worcester, George (I366)
 
2381 The information on this tree has largely been taken from two sources:
1. The Devin Timber website, and
2. The Worcester Family website.


 
Worcester, Rev William (I2)
 
2382 The link between Sarah Worcester and William Gorringe Worcester is based on a family bible. There appear to be no parish records available at the moment to verify this link. Worcester, Sarah (I239)
 
2383 The marriage record claims DOB ca. 1859 O'Brien, Margaret (I13)
 
2384 The marriage record claims DOB to be 1855 O'Brien, Mary (I14)
 
2385 The note in the Family Bible of Benjamin Wooster suggests his father Joseph was 85 when he died in 1750. However it is not easy to read. We do not know where Jo Waterstone obtained the information that he was born in 1869 from. Wooster, Joseph (I01465)
 
2386 The online record for Gladys gives her age as 66 as opposed 68. This might be a typo as it is difficult to see who else this could be. Wooster, Gladys Elizabeth (I473879)
 
2387 The orchard John & Jeannie ran is now owned by their great grandson, John.
Woosters of Orira Orchard 
Family: John Wooster / Jeannie Frances Harrison (F15)
 
2388 The orchard John and Jeannie ran is now owned by their great grandson, John.
Woosters of Orira Orchard 
 
2389 The school discharge record claims DOB as 24 Apr 1900, but is outweighed by the other three records. Woolley, Alice Lillian (I812)
 
2390 The SS Canberra had its maiden voyage to Australia on 2 Jun 1961 and it is therefore quite likely that William and Gladys and family were on the second voyage. Wooster, William John (I760133)
 
2391 The SS Canberra had its maiden voyage to Australia on 2 Jun 1961 and it is therefore quite likely that William and Gladys and family were on the second voyage. Wooster, Brian Sidney (I1444215)
 
2392 The SS Canberra had its maiden voyage to Australia on 2 Jun 1961 and it is therefore quite likely that William and Gladys and family were on the second voyage. Corns, Gladys (I1444212)
 
2393 The surname is transcribed on the Consular records as Yamalee, but the record itself suggests it could be Mamalee, Zamalee or Yamalu or any other combination. The newspaper report suggests her name was Jamalee. Yamalee, Gladys May (I215)
 
2394 The WikiTree also claims Anna died at Quaker Farms, Oxford.
Family Search claims she died 1n 1717 at Derby 
Perry, Anna (I45)
 
2395 The year of birth on the headstone (1889) must be wrong since the birth was registered in 1887 Kellerman, Marcelle Alice (I51819)
 
2396 There is a chance that Rebecca died in 1691 as there is a burial entry for that date. However, it would seem that this is much more likely to be her niece Rebecca Howes. Worster, Rebecca (I7)
 
2397 There is a discrepancy between the 1939 Register and the death entry on the BMD Index for Phyllis's DOB. The 1939 Register claims 4 Mar, whereas the BMD Index claims 20 Mar Ellis, Phyllis Mary (I1008633)
 
2398 There is a discrepancy with Kate's DOB. Her birth and death records and her 1891 census return indicate she was born in 1883. However, her marriage certificate and 1911 census return indicate her DOB to be around 1886.
We believe 1883 is the correct date. 
Cooper, Kate Emily (I1933456)
 
2399 There is a Herbert A Wooster living at 133 Empire Court, North End Road, Wembley from 1947 through to 1958 with Eleanor E Wooster, presumably his wife. We haven't found a marriage record for him, so is this the same man and could Eleanor be South African? Or is this a different family?
There is also a Herbert A Wooster with a Mabel Wooster at 2 Molesey Road, Esher in Surrey in 1962. This looks like it could be Herbert temporarily back in the UK with his mother. Could he be the boxing promoter referred to in the Most Wanted section? 
Wooster, Herbert Arthur (I1328302)
 
2400 There is a possibility that Hanna might be Hannah Weeden (bpt 25 Oct 1639), the daughter of Lucy from her previous marriage, and hence not the daughter of Robert. Wooster, Hanna (I00328)
