Joseph Worsey married my great aunt Eliza Herodias French in 1887. Eliza's mother was Sarah Ann Worsey, previously French, maiden name Taylor.
Although her husband, Ernest Worsey, had a brother, Joseph, it seems unlikely that Eliza would marry her mother's brother in law. The Worsey family were quite extensive. One section of the family were involved in boat building. If anyone can throw any light on where this Joseph Worsey fitted into the family I would be most grateful. I should point out that on his marriage certificate, his father is shown as Peter Worsey. Ernest Worsey, Eliza's step father also had a father called Peter Worsey. It is all so confusing.
