CLIFFORD this will cover quite a few entries so keep following it down, my computer only allows a small entry each time, I don't know why......

Margaret Report 4 May 2010 11:33

CLIFFORD, we need the birth certificate of Ernest John Smith to know his father and mother's names, then the purchase of their marriage certificate will give the name of Frederick John Smith's father and his occupation. There are too many parishes in Oxford for me to look through them all to find Frederick John Smith's baptism.
I have asked for a lookup on the Record Board for Ernest John Smith on the 1911 census perhaps that will give a parish to look in at that period, but it may not be where he was baptised.

CLIFFORD
There is a marriage in Abingdon 3quarter 1895 for Frederick William Smith to Beatrice Hayman.
You will need to purchase the birth certificate of Ernest John Smith to be certain that this is the marriage of his parents.Otherwise you could go in the completely wrong direction. My records are of parishes, of which many do not go up to the 1900's.
