Hi Jean

A good place to start in Cambs is the Cambs FHS website which has baptism and census indexes.

http://www.cfhs.org.uk/Search.html

There is only one Worswick family in the census indexes, in 1851, John 52 Alice 51 plus probably children Emma 22 and John 15 living in March.

Was Hezia her christian name, for if so it sounds very like the more common Kezia? There are no Hezia surnames in the baptism index.

If you can give us a bit more info on John Worswick, birth date/place etc, where he was living at census times it will give us a bit more to go on.

Regards

David

Hi Jean,

I doubt this will help you much but there was a Hezia Wilkerson born  1814 in Great Eversdon. I am sorry I do not have the full entry on Hezia.

Kind Regards

Frances
