Nicholas Worthingtons occur in the 16th century too in Manchester and Standish ... and in the 17th century in Ashton-under-Lyne, Leigh, Melling, Standish and Upholland. Of course, the Birmingham Nicholas could be a 'Lancashire' Worthington, but because of the proximilty of Birmingham to Worthington (Leicestershire),I suggested he is more probably a 'Leicestershire' one!
