Email from Tim Worfolk to Ian Nelson, "Sarah Worfolk", 12 March 2021

Hi Ian, just wanted to thank you for sharing your research. From your ancestry tree and your website it seems our most recent shared ancestor is Sarah Worfolk (1796-1867). I’m descended from her youngest son Benjamin, then his son William, his son Walter, and his son (my father) Peter. I see you’ve tracked down one or two pieces of the puzzle which had escaped me: Benjamin’s death in 1870 (suspected but good to see evidence) and James’s death in 1839 (with proof of Sarah’s unmarried status). I may be able return the favour as I think I’ve recently located what I’m fairly sure is Sarah’s death record (under ‘Woforek’), age 70, Hunslet Q3 1867 (England & Wales Civil Reg. Death Index); have you seen this? all the best, Tim
