Worden neé Pope

1838
23 March -
William
and his new wife Ann arrived in Hobart via Sydney, Described as
Launceston Settler, with Mrs Chilcott senior and Anne. Ages (27,
37,
55, 6). I have Langford Chilcott's wife Ann dying in 1823. So
who is
Mrs Chilcott senior? The newre wife Ann was a widow, with a
child Ann
aged 6.

to 1877 -
William and
Janet had sixteen children (the last when Janet was aged 46
years)

Where does all this leave us? I think we have to take the simple view that there was only one unlisted passenger on the Marquis of Anglsea, and that was William Roseveare. And William came from England in 1831. For what it is worth Ancestry ThruLines confirms common DNA with two of William's children by his second marriage. So he is definitely descended from Langford and Ann Chilcott in Tintagel.
