There's lots about him online - though no parents names.
He had a brother Neil, and another brother, unnamed;

"You were born in 1913 at Swan Hill, in the Mallee district of Victoria. Your father was a farmer, wasn't he?

He was. All the way back that I can trace, on the male side there were farmers in Somerset and on my great-grandmother's side there were farmers' wives in southern Scotland."

Could anybody down under tell me the names of the parents of Professor Howard Worner born 1913. His parents originated in Somerset England - or maybe just his father came from Somerset and married an Australian Lady when he arrived down under. and I am trying to trace which branch of the Worner family he descended from. Thanks in anticipation
