The Worsley family is an English family that is derived from Sir Elias de Workesley, a Norman knight who was a youth at the time of the Norman conquest. He later accompanied Duke Robert II of Normandy (elder son of William the Conqueror) on the First Crusade and was buried at Rhodes.
The Worsley baronetcy, of Appuldurcombe in the County of Hampshire, was created in the Baronetage of England on 29 June 1611 for landowner and politician Richard Worsley.[1] On the death of the fourth Baronet, the title passed to a branch of the family living at Pylewell, near Lymington, Hampshire. All except the sixth and eighth baronets were Members of Parliament for Newport, Isle of Wight, as were several other members of the family, including Henry Worsley, who was also successively British Envoy to Portugal[2] and Governor of Barbados. The seventh baronet was succeeded in his estates by his niece who married the 1st Earl of Yarborough, with the title passing to a distant kinsman. It became extinct on the death of his son, the ninth Baronet, in 1825.[3]
