| 470 | Most of the NSW records record his date of birth as 1806. His occupation was given as "Ploughs, Reaps". Following a housebreaking, he was tried at Bucks Assizes on 28th February, 1828, for which he was given a Life sentence and then transported to NSW on the ship "Eliza" under Captain Doughty (sailed 29th June, arrived 18th November, 1828). He received a "conditional pardon" in 1843 for 1844. He was described as 5'3 3/4" tall, of "dark, ruddy complexion", black hair and brown eyes, with a mole on the back of his neck. By this time he was working for George Gray on "The Pelican" property at Wahgunyah, near the River Murray (all of what we call "Victoria" was then part of NSW). On 12th March, 1838, Thomas Wooster was granted permission to marry Mary Gray. He was then said to be 32 years of age. Mary Gray was the daughter of George Gray. The marriage took place on 7th April, 1838 (in the Police Office at Goulburn). In 1844, Thomas had the job or droving cattle from Waygunyah to Melbourne, for sale at the saleyards at Newmarket. Unfortunately, he was gored to death there by a bull on 10th May, 1844, and buried at the Melbourne Cemetery near Flagstaff Hill. 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. Thomas left a widow and three young children, George, Thomas and Mary. His widow re-married and the children were brought up in Wangaratta. Thomas Wooster had apparently signed his will as "Worster", his gravestone has "Worster", his widow re-married as "Woster" but the three children always spelled their name as "Worcester" as their descendants have ever since. Thomas Worcester the younger and his brother George were pioneers in the Victorian Alps (at Omeo and Benambra in East Gippsland). | Wooster, Thomas (I9)
|
| 471 | My great-grandfather, George James Worcester (born 1810 London, arrived Melbourne 1839, died 1887) met Thomas Worcester the younger in Melbourne, late 1870s or early 1880s. Thomas had come down to Melbourne to buy supplies. He was apparently shocked to find the proprietor's name was Worcester. Great-Grandfather wasn't there at the time but later that day, he met Thomas and took him to the Flagstaff Hill burial ground to show him his father's grave. Our family and the Omeo family always assumed we were related and did maintain some links every 30 years or so. I've met quite a few and was always struck by facial resemblances but haven't been able to find any connection through records. I met the son of Thomas the younger in 1964 - George - in his 90s; a hale and hearty farmer at Benambra who was still driving. He dug into a box and produced a letter my grandfather, Thomas, had written to him in 1906, hoping to visit (he wasn't able to and he died the following year). | Wooster, Thomas (I9)

| 475 | At the time of the 1911 Census, Hilda was age 21, known as May Wooster and was working as a servant in Cookham, Berkshire. To confuse matters, there was another Hilda May Wooster who married John T Bushell in Maidenhead in 1928. However, we believe this one to be person I03121 on the GWT as she is younger. | Wooster, Hilda May (I02358)

| 477 | Obituary, Florida Times-Union, September 5, 2015 Winifred Olive Lester, age 91, passed away on September 2, 2015 at the home of her son and daughter -in-law (Bob and Sandy) in Jacksonville, Florida. Wynne was born on October 11, 1923 in London, England. She was the daughter of Florence Louise Bloxham and William Thomas Wooster. Wynne was the youngest of 7 children. She attended Stillness Road School and Sydenham Secondary School until age 16. Like many girls her age Wynne left school to serve her country by working in Britain's arsenal. There she was a draftsman working on the design of various weapons for the British military during World War II. While working at the arsenal, Wynne also met her future husband, Corporal Robert C. Lester, while he was briefly stationed by the US Army in England. They had a long distance courtship that spanned 4 years. At the end of World War II Wynne traveled to America on her own at age 23 to become a war bride. Wynne and Robert were married at St. Paul's in Jacksonville on December 12, 1946. Wynne was with her beloved Robert (deceased, 1992) for 46 years. Wynne became a US Citizen in 1951. In 1946 Wynne became a member of the Duval Chapter of the Daughters of the British Empire. She was also very active in the Jacksonville Homemakers Extension Club where she served as secretary. Wynne was also a strong supporter of Catholic Charities Foster Children Program. Wynne opened up the Lester home parenting foster children from 1961-1966. She was also a member of Assumption Church Catholic Parish for over 55 years and volunteered at both the Church and School. Wynne Lester enjoyed baking, gardening, sewing and reading. But certainly Wynne's greatest joy came from her family. Wynne was a devoted mother to her two sons, Robert Michael Lester (wife Sandra Marshall Lester), John Charles Lester (deceased, 2010) and to her daughter, Susan Lester Davis (wife of Dr. John Davis). Wynne was an amazing grandmother to her four grandchildren: Michael Lester (Tampa), Carrie Lester Newell, (Green Cove Springs) and James Davis and Emily Davis (Gainesville). Wynne was also blessed with five great grandchildren: Katie Lester, Peyton Lester, Luke Lester (Tampa) and Jack Newell and Claire Newell (Green Cove Springs). Wynne Lester's selflessness and love as a mother was most apparent in her devotion to her son John Lester, who suffered from myotonic dystrophy. She always put John first in her life and was his primary caretaker. Wynne was most happy when helping others, especially those in need. | Wooster, Winifred Olive (I810111)

| 479 | Letter from W.K.[William Kinnaird] Worster to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew; from Observatory, Madras [Chennai, India]; 13 Nov 1848; four page letter comprising two images; folio 281 Worster is obliged by his correspondent's kind reply to his letter sent by Major Reid, the present secretary of the Horticultural Society, after Worster was obliged to leave the office on taking charge of the observatory. The trees sent by the surgeon of the 'Vernon' will have by now reached his correspondent. Major Reid will, however, not lose sight of any opportunity to send his correspondent and Messrs Loddiges anything likely to be valuable. Major Reid is now collecting Orchideae with this purpose in mind. Mr Walter Elliot sent Worster one of Dr [Joseph] Hooker's letters for perusal; Hooker seemed in high health and spirits. The disturbed North West Provinces will be a check on Hooker's movements for a time but, ultimately, the presence of a large force will be advantageous to him, as he can pass through the country in safety. Worster is about to write to a friend in the North West Provinces, asking him to provide hospitality to Hooker should they happen to meet. Worster believes Major Reid is writing to his correspondent on the subject of the mango trees he desired. Pages 1 and 4 of 4. | Worster, Major General William Kinnaird (I163)

| 483 | From John Worcester: I have possibly three birth years for our Thomas: there's that one from the Aylesbury record suggesting 1806; elsewhere 1808 (I think that's from convict records) and hen 1811 on gravestone (killed 1844 aged 33). His name is spelled variously as Wooster and Worster; his widow married as Woster and his three children grew up always spelled Worcester. His two sons became the pioneers of Omeo and Benambra (Gippsland Alps area) - still cattlemen. Same with ost of the next generation - then two Worcester brothers became gynaecologists (plus their cousins who were regularly locked up !! - perhaps a genetic disposition? - or "sports". | Wooster, Thomas (I9)
|
| 484 | From John Worcester: Thomas Worcester and his brother George were pioneers in the Victorian Alps (at Omeo and Benambra in East Gippsland). | Worcester, George (I11)

|
| 486 | From John Worcester: Thomas Worcester and his brother George were pioneers in the Victorian Alps (at Omeo and Benambra in East Gippsland). | Worcester, Thomas (I12)
|
| 487 | From John Worcester Having visited George Worcester at Benambra in 1964 (he died not long after), I met his daughter (Mary / May Betts, born 1903, same year as my mother) and we became firm friends with various subsequent visits by myself to Benambra. She always said I strongly resembled her late son. | Worcester, Mary (I17)
|
| 488 | From John Worcester I met George in 1964 - in his 90s; a hale and hearty farmer at Benambra who was still driving. He dug into a box and produced a letter my grandfather, Thomas, had written to him in 1906, hoping to visit (he wasn't able to and he died the following year). | Worcester, George Henry Russell (I15)
|
| 489 | Mt Mulligan Mine Accident Mt Mulligan is in the area where I spend a lot of my days and Frank Latimer's name is on several plaques commemorating the men who were killed in the accident. William had a brother Richard Henry Latimer and his son was Frank Loftus Latimer who was killed in the Mt Mulligan mine accident in 1921. This accident killed 75 men. | Latimer, William Thomas (I04140)

| 491 | A geni.com tree gives her father's name as George Phillips. | Rowlings, Daphne Sylvia (I1536938)
|
| 492 | A geni.com tree suggests Daphne's DOB to be 4 Feb 1930, but we believe this to be wrong. (a) It doesn't match with the Death Index entry and (b) in the newspaper article celebrating her 60th wedding anniversary it refers to her being 82 rather than 80. | Rowlings, Daphne Sylvia (I1536938)
|
| 493 | A note from John Worcester: As for William Worcester of Cheddington, there's been a dreadful misconception for over a century about his descendants. The US Worcesters believed they were descended from the Cheddington Worcesters but that theory has been discredited. Their original ancestor was the Rev William Worcester of West Haddon (Northants) and for a while vicar of Olney in the northernmost part of Buckinghamshire. That family came from the Rugby area, Warwickshire and Northamptonshire. I think the US Worcester who unravelled the mystery was David Worcester and it's all laid out on the Worcester Family website. The website was set up by John P Worcester, Attorney of Parker, Colorado. | Worcester, Rev William (I2)

| 495 | Ada and Edward were never married, but there is little doubt that Ada's children, Edward John Wooster and Frederick Borner Wooster were Edward's children | Family: Edward John Borner / Ada Wooster (F443545)
