a Farmer with Ida Clara, address listed as Korrak Korrak

whether or not it's coincidence there is a Reginald John Worner also a Farmer listed between the two of them, address Yassam via Mystic Park ?

I cant find anybody called Jno Worner on either of teh two census reports from 1911 and 1901. Seems a strange abbreviation for John.

Thank you for that rapid response.
