I am trying to trace my Grandfather's maternal line.

His mother was Doris Anna Worsfold, and her parents were John Worsfold and Hannah Jenner.

John Worsfold was the son of James Worsfold (b 1811 Horley) and Hannah Head ( b 1814 HOrley). I have James' father as Thomas Worsfold, b 1775, Horsham and Hannah's father as William Turner Head but no information on their mothers, or any information further back.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards

Deborah

Hiya, yes I do have the marriage cert and on there William Head is written as William Turner Head.

Thank you for the information you have all given to me. Its a shame that mother's maiden names aren't given.
