I have a Hannah Worsley whose middle name was Chadwell, which was her
mother's maiden name. Also a Susannah Worsley with the middle name of
Blackwell, sounds like another family surname, but haven't made the
connection yet. Then there is Ann Dudley Brown, so I'm pretty sure Dudley
is family surname, so many avenues to check.
