Worthington family more
1880-1929

Charles, if you have first names for the Worthingtons, search trees ( Search at top of page) otherwise it's unlikely that such a brief post will do much good without some more details on location and family members.

Post some names and other members will try and help :-)

And don't hesitate to explain what "Worthington family more" might mean ...

:-S

I messaged Charles and asked him to return to his posting but have received this as a response:

Richard Worthington - 1851-1926,spouse Elizabeth Mercer 1858 -1929,
one of their daughters my grandmother Maria Worthington 1880 -1929

I have again requested that he return to the posting.

As Charles has at least some of the above children on his tree already I assume he has census records etc?

Charles it would be helpful if you post what you already know, and whose children/grandchildren you are hoping to find.

thank you to all -I was hoping to find more re Richard.
I am grandson of Maria -I note there are 2 Williams so I assume the elder must have died in infancy ?
Maria and Mary married brothers William and Herbert Ferguson sons of a grocer, Herbert won dso in navy (rnr) in 1915
