Locality

These families lived in the Coventry - Kenilworth - Offchurch area of Warwickshire (WAR) England from about 1790 to the 1850s.

Early Generations

1. ♦ Richard Dillon (c1720-5…) m.1749 Mary Sympson (c1720-5…)
Most of the data in lineages 1 and 2 [Dillon and Worrall families] was researched by Bob Wallis, 7 Yarrat Place, Wauchope NSW, in 2004/5.

Richard Dillon and Mary Sympson, married in the parish church at Stoneley [Stoneleigh], Warwickshire [midway between Coventry and Royal Leamington Spa], on 8 January 1749G [1748J] , were probably the parents of:

Note that these children appear to have been born some years after the marriage of Richard and Mary.

2. ♦ Thomas Worrall (c1730-35…) m.1754 Bridget Cotteril (c1730-35…)

Thomas Worrall and Bridget Cotteril married in the Radford Semele parish church on 14 January 1754G. They were the parents of:

Another Elizabeth <Worril> was christened on 19 December 1779 at Leamington, the child of Thomas and Hannah Worril. An Eliz Worrall married a Wm Townsend at Stoneleigh on 11 October 1785.

2.1  Thomas Worrall (c1761…1824) m.1785 Jane Dillam (c1761…1819)

Thomas Worrall, born circa circa 1761 (possibly the son of THOMAS WORRALL and BRIDGET COTTERIL), married Jane Dillam in the Stoneleigh parish church on 28 December 1785. Jane, born circa 1761, was probably the daughter of RICHARD DILLON and MARY SYMPSON of Stoneleigh, although born perhaps 10-15 years after their marriage. [An Eliz Worrall had married a Wm Townsend at Stoneleigh on 11 October 1785, the seventh marriage prior to Thomas and Jane].

While at Green Lane, Stoneleigh, Thomas and Jane were the parents of at least seven children:

Jane the wife of Thomas Worrall, labourer of Stoneley, was buried aged 58 years at Stoneleigh on 16 June 1819.
Thomas Worrall, labourer of Stoneleigh aged 63 years, was buried at Stoneleigh on 30 July 1824.

A William Marsters was baptised at Stoneleigh later in 1803, son of Thomas and Mary Marsters thereof

Note: the 1881 census has a Stoneleigh-born Thomas Worrall aged 84 at Berkswell WAR with his granddaughter Emily Cotterill:

2.1.1 William Worrall (c1800…1873) m. Elizabeth Jarvis (c1794…1861-71)

William Worrall, bachelor and minor, son of THOMAS WORALL and JANE DILLAM, married Elizabeth Jarvis, spinster, on 14 June 1818 at the parish church of St Mary the Virgin, Stonley [Stoneleigh]; both made their marks in the register and were of the parish of Stoneleigh though it appears that Jane had been born at Preston Baggot WAR [Preston Bagot, about 9m west of Royal Leamington Spa] circa 1794. William and Elizabeth Worrall were the parents of at least nine children:

William and Elizabeth are listed in the census of 6 June 1841 at Stoneleigh:

While Stoneleigh baptismal records to William and Elizabeth exist for the older children listed in the 1841 census record above, the relationship of Emma (born c1839) and Henry (born early 1840) is not clear. An Emma, born c1839, and a younger George, born c1841, are listed in the 1851 census as grandchildren of William and Elizabeth. A George Worrall, potentially the above, son of Hannah Worrall, had been baptised at St. Mary Warwick Parish, Warwick, on 19 March 1841.

William and Elizabeth appear in the 1851 census at Stoneleigh:

Unmarried servant Emma Worrall, born c1839 at Stoneleigh, is listed in the 1861 census as a visitor to the household of labourer Thomas and Jane Smith in Whitnash in eastern Leamington Spa, about 9km south of Stoneleigh; Jane Smith, 39, had been born c1822 at Stoneleigh. Thomas Smith had married Jane Worrall at the parish church of St John the Baptist, Spon Street, Coventry, on 17 January 1843: Jane was noted as single, a daughter of William Worrall, and Thomas as single, a son of Henry Smith.
[The Emma Worrall who married William Dry on 6 April 1856 at St Michael, Coventryi, was aged 23 (born c1833), a daughter of Thomas Worrall; William, aged 26 (born c1830) was a son of Jonathon Dry].

William Worrall, aged 75 years, died at Stoneleigh on 12 June 1873.

An Emma Worrall, perhaps the above Emma, married a William Dry on 6 April 1856 at St Michael, Coventry.

2.1.1.1  Thomas Worrall (1819…1881-91) m. Mary — (c1815…1881-91)

Thomas Worrall, son born 1819 to WILLIAM WORALL and ELIZABETH JARVIS, married Mary —, probably at Stoneleigh. Though the delineation of Thomas and Mary’s family is complicated by another Thomas and Mary Worrall having children baptised at Kenilworth prior to our couple, it appears from census data they were the parents of (at least):

The census of 6 June 1841 shews Thomas apparently living alone at King Wood in Kenilworth:

Thomas and Mary do not appear to be included in the 1891 census. Thomas may have been the Thomas Worrall whose death aged 71 years was recorded in the Warwick registration district in the September Quarter 1889 [St Catherine’s House index Vol. 6d page 356].

2.1.1.2 Jane Worrall (1822…1911) m. Thomas Smith (c1822…1989?)

Jane Worrall, baptised 7 April 1822 at Stoneleigh, daughter of Stoneleigh labourer WILLIAM WORALL and ELIZABETH JARVIS, married full-age bachelor labourer Thomas Smith at the parish church of St John the Baptist, Spon Street, Coventry, on 17 January 1843. Jane was noted as of full age spinster, a daughter of labourer William Worrall, and Thomas as a son of labourer HENRY SMITH. Banns had been published and the Jane and Thomas were each noted as residents of Spon Street, Coventry; each made their marks in the register. The CoE wedding, conducted by William Drake, was witnessed by Thomas Worrall and Mary Worrall [Jane's older brother and his wife], who signed the register. It appears that Jane's younger brother William was married to Susanna Hewitt at the same church two days later.

Baptismal and census records shew Jane and Draycot-born Thomas as the parents of at least:

Jane and Thomas appear in the 1851 census at Whitnash:

2.1.2.3  Jane Worrall (1831…1903) m. John Batcheldor (1829…1889)

Spinster Jane Worrall, daughter of THOMAS WORALL and MARY —, was baptised on 24 February 1826 at Kenilworth. Jane was baptised in 1832 at nearby Kenilworth. The 1851 census has a Kenilworth-born Jane Worrell, aged 20 and unmarried, working in the household of Baron Cave at Townpool Bridge, Kenilworth: as a scullery maid, she occupied possibly the lowest position in the household staff of thirteen.

On 17 June 1851 at the parish church of Kenilworth, Jane married bachelor sawyer John Batcheldor (born 24 October 1829, Cubbington ), son of JOSEPH BATCHELOR (1799…1860) and ELIZABETH BOYS (1804…1838). Martha Worrall, conjecturally Jane's older sister, was a signatory witness at Jane's wedding.

With the surviving three of five children born in Warwickshire and baptised at Cubbington, Jane and John emigrated to New South Wales in 1859, where they had another six children.

John Batcheldor died in NSW in 1889; his wife Jane née Worrall survived until 1903. Their family is described in greater detail in the Batcheldor WebPage.

Batcheldor (various spellings), Boyes (various spellings); Masters; Gibbons.

A Thomas Worrall, born circa 1793, not necessarily related to the Worralls noted above, married Mary Hunt on 26 July 1828 at St John's, Coventry . They had at least one child:
