Goal
The goal of the Oxfordshire Team is to make all Oxfordshire profiles the best that they can be. It is our desire to leave a lasting legacy of work for future generations and current researchers that can facilitate their quest for family history, and bring them one step closer to discovering the myriad of people it has taken for them to draw breath.
Topics
In order to achieve our goal, there are a number of things we are currently working on:
- Oxfordshire, Unsourced Profiles
- Oxfordshire Unconnected Profiles
- Oxfordshire Profiles managed by the England Project.
- Each month tackling a particular area of focus through the Oxfordshire Monthly Challenge. This can be found here: Oxfordshire Monthly Challenge

For that matter, there doesn't appear to be a category for Goring-on-Thames (his listed place of death), just Goring. Is this the same place?
Goring and Goring-on-Thames are the same place. I can see the Cemetery under Goring.
Cemetery category was created after I posted here - thanks to Steve Harris. :) (He also added the category to other profiles he found - so. bonus!)
I'm working on an exercise to go through all the profiles on Wikitree with a birth, marriage or death location of Oxfordshire and adding maintenance categories. If you find yourself with some time on your hands, and want to help improve the quality of the profiles for this country, please go and have a look at the different categories here https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Oxfordshire%2C_Maintenance_Categories and see what you can clean up. Please remember to remove the maintenance category when you have made the update.
Thanks Sarah
One of our ancestors was John Ware https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ware-3882
Our Australian family is to hold a Ware - Wilson Reunion in Victoria - now delayed because of Covid-19. Details https://warewilsonreunion.art.blog/
We have visited Faringdon - and the excellent Faringdon & District Archaeological & Historical Society - but were not able to discover anything of the family history.
Appreciate any information if WikiTree-ers come across relating to the Ware, or connected families, from Oxfordshire. (Ware, King, Crowdy, Warren families circa - early to mid 1800's)
