He was a son of another William of Worcester, a Bristol citizen, and is sometimes called William Botoner, his mother being a daughter of Thomas Botoner from Catalonia.
He was educated at Oxford and became secretary to Sir John Fastolf. When the knight died in 1459 Worcester, found that nothing had been bequeathed to him although he was one of his executors and, with one of his colleagues Sir William Yelverton, he disputed the validity of the will. However, an amicable arrangement was made and Worcester obtained some lands near Norwich and in Southwark. He died about 1482.
Works
Worcester made several journeys through England, and his Itinerarium contains much information. The survey of Bristol is of value to antiquaries. Portions of the work were printed by James Nasmith in 1778; and the part relating to Bristol was published by James Dallaway under the title William Wyrcestre Redivivus in 1823, and reprinted in his Antiquities of Bristowe in 1834. A modern scholarly edition and translation, edited by John Harvey, was published as Itineraries of William Worcestre in 1969.
Worcester (i/ˈwʊstər/WUUS-tər) is a city and the county town of Worcestershire in the West Midlands of England. Worcester is situated some 17 miles (27km) southwest of the southern suburbs of Birmingham and 23 miles (37km) north of Gloucester, and has an approximate population of 100,000 people.
Worcester (/ˈwʊstər/WUUSS-tər, locally also i/ˈwᵻstə/WISS-tə) is a city and the historic county seat of Worcester County, Massachusetts, United States until Massachusetts disbanded county government in 1998. Named after Worcester, England, as of the 2010 Census the city's population was 181,045, making it the second largest city in New England after Boston.
Worcester is located approximately 40 miles (64km) west of Boston, and 38 miles (61km) east of Springfield. Due to its location in Central Massachusetts, amidst Massachusetts' major metropolitan regions, Worcester is known as the "Heart of the Commonwealth", thus, a heart is the official symbol of the city. However, the heart symbol may also have its provenance in lore that Valentine's Day cards were invented in the city.
Worcester was considered its own region for centuries; however, with the encroachment of Boston's suburbs in the 1970s after the construction of Interstate 495 and Interstate 290, it now marks the western periphery of the Boston-Worcester-Providence (MA-RI-NH) U.S. Census Combined Statistical Area (CSA), or Greater Boston. The city features many examples of Victorian-eramill architecture.

William Worcester, Midwest Snow
Siri!
Let's try this again...
Can YOU find Midwest Snow?*
In a William Worcester painting, the serene light of nature is portrayed by canvases of quiet beauty. By subtly altering the shapes of reality, Worcester creates a feeling of being wrapped in the warm glow of the natural landscape.
"I work from nature to create a visual poem," Worcester says. "A painting leaves more to the imagination than a photograph, work with a minimum of detail and paint somewhat loosely and intuitively." The result is a series of tonal landscapes mixed with a subtle impressionism. "It's all about capturing the light...the light as it moves across the landscape, it's almost spiritual when the land is infused with the glow of twilight." Working as I do I feel an affinity with the great Tonalist painters of th...

Unsolved: Worcester - Season 3, Ep. 8 - William Garlick and John V.J. Joyce Went Missing in Maine
It’s mid-September 1982.
The summer is winding down in Worcester and 27-year-old William Garlick and 33-year-old John V.J. Joyce, Jr. hop into William’s 1980 black Corvette for a quick trip up north to Maine.
But they’re not heading to Vacationland for a late-summer getaway.
The two men are on their way to collect a debt of $22,000, likely running an errand to collect money owed to a Worcester-born drug kingpin.
The day after they leave Worcester, Maine State Police find William’s corvette abandoned outside of a shopping mall in Bangor.
William and John were never seen or heard from again.

In a William Worcester painting, the serene light of nature is portrayed by canvases of quiet beauty. By subtly altering the shapes of reality, Worcester creates a feeling of being wrapped in the warm glow of the natural landscape.
"I work from nature to create a visual poem," Worcester says. "A painting leaves more to the imagination than a photograph, work with a minimum of detail and paint somewhat loosely and intuitively." The result is a series of tonal landscapes mixed with a subtle impressionism. "It's all about capturing the light...the light as it moves across the landscape, it's almost spiritual when the land is infused with the glow of twilight." Working as I do I feel an affinity with the great Tonalist painters of the past such as George Inness and Alexander Wyant.
Some of the Illinois
landscape paintings depict recognizable places in the Midwest, while others only use locations as a starting point for the artist's vision. Of the latter, Worcester says they arise from memories and experiences from a lifetime of interacting with the landscape and nature.
"In my paintings I try to go beyond a simple depiction of a place, to explore and capture the experience or feeling that the landscape conveys." he explains. "Many of my landscapes start with sketches, plein air paintings and photos of an actual place, but then I create a painting that evolves the landscape into how I want to see it and not exactly as it appears in the objective world."
