On genesreunited theres 1 page of Worsnups mentioned, but 15 pages of Worsnops, have you considered this spelling?
Regards Cat

I wasn't saying you had the wrong spelling for your branch, but over time, names tended to get spelt as they were heard due to poor literacy, so maybe further back, you will find the spelling varies. So you could still find a connection with a branch that went with the alternative spelling..... (I've found this on a branch I am doing for my husband - Shakespeare, Shakespear, Shakspear, Shaxper, etc, the spellings get more obscure the further back you go) 
Good Luck Cat 
ps. on the IGI, the christenings for Philip and brother Thomas are "Worsnup" but brother Joseph is "Worsnap". There are also "Worsnip" children/marriages so examples of how spellings can vary over time and from area to area....
