About this Blog
The purpose of this Blog has changed over time. What started out to be an online version of some old Worthington Descendant Newsletters. It has become a way to journal about my adventure into Family History, sometimes called Genealogy. The change for me is more about finding out the stories behind the names and dates that I find about the people I find in my research.- Follow A Worthington Weblog on WordPress.com

I am a descendant of John Worthington and I am trying to find out his father’s name that died at sea. Also his mother’s name. I have all the genealogy completed back to 1697 in Lancashire England, any information would be greatly appreciated! I have been trying to locate his parents for years, this is the first I heard of his father’s death at sea. Thank you,
