I looked for your Henry Jones born c 1867 on the 1871 census, and found Henry Jones born 1864 living in the Ecclesiastical Parish of St John
with his parents
Samuel Jones aged 46 yrs a Mason born in Cardigg
Mary Ann 39 yrs born Brackley N'Hants. and daughter
Nelly aged 1 yr born Cowley
Henry 6 yr born Cowley.
When I looked up the baptisms for Henry and Nelly I found that they were both baptised with more elaborate names
Frances nelly Jones bapt 20/2/1870 in Cowley St James
Charles Henry Jones bapt 15/9/1864 in Cowley St James
both times the parents are living in Princes Street Cowley.

ANN continued
Samuel and Mary Ann had more children baptised than just these two, I have not looked into them as am not sure you will be willing to accept Charles Henry Jones as the one you are looking for.
I can find no connection between Henry Jones and Rebecca Baughan, who I think married Henry Baughan in 1847 in Witney Reg District
she was Rebecca Cook who had been baptised 23/9/1823 Cogges daughter of Robert and Sarah of High Coggs he a labourer.
Sorry not to have more definite news.

I looked on the 1901 census in Cowley St John and found
Horace Pocock head 43 yrs a cricket ball maker born Chiddington kent
his wife Kate E 34 yrs born Willingdon Surrey
Richard 11 yrs born Southborough Kent
Frederick C.9 yrs born Newington London
Horace 7 yrs born Oxford
Walter J 3 yrs born Oxford
Charles R 5 months born Oxford
it seemed reasonable that Charles R aged 5 months was baptised where they were living so looked on Saints Mary and John Cowley and found

Hi there Margaret - hope you are well. Would you please be kind enough to see if you have the baptism of Susan Webley in Woodstock - born to William and Susannah 1848. Not sure if her given name is Susan or Susannah - perhaps she was named after her mother.
Do you have her marriage details 1872 to John Whitlock at Woodstock please and son William J Whitlock born 1875 Wodstock who I am not sure if he ever married. Still at home 1901 census. Many thanks and kind regards Irene

Hello Margaret can I please ask for another look up for Headington please a marriage between Harriett Webley and William Glaister, is Harrietts father William and who are the witnesses please.

Also can you please solve the mystrey of what happened to Richard Slatter
who married Alice Webley at Woodstock 1874. They never seemed to be together
as she went off to London with her sisters 1881 census. Cannot find Richard James Slatter born 1852 Chipping Norton in any of the census after marriage. Did they marry because they had a child Slatter who perhaps died Note a Harry Slatter born and died around that time.
Any help would be much appreciated. Regards Irene

Having looked on the 1871 census, I saw that Ann Bugby came from Long Coombe in Oxfordshire, there are no Bugbys in Longcoombe.
So she married outside of Oxfordshire from the marriage disc.
There are the following Anns baptised in Longcoombe at around the date she gives for her birth
Ann Walker 27/2/1803 daughter of Mary
Ann Batts 20/11/1803 dtr Thomas and Francis
Ann Phipps 25/3/1804 dtr Joseph and Elizabeth
Ann Green 1/4/1804 dtr William and Sarah
Ann Ovnill 14/4/1805 dtr Thomas and Elizabeth, but I think she married Thomas Slatter in 1830
Ann Tustin 5/5/1805 dtr John and Mary
Anne Kilby 13/10/1805 dtr John and Hannah
