      Subject: [OXF] Marriage Burrowes/Gregory and Biggar(s)

      Hi

      I wonder if anyopne with access to marriages in Oxon could see if there is a marriage between Winifred GREGORY or BURROW(E)S (she may have been a widow) at some time between 1600 and 1643, It is possible that Winifred married in Witney where there are BIGGAR(s) around at this period. I know she had 4 children; Jerome (or Jeremiah), Isaac, Matthew and Winifred.

      Any ideas welcome.

      Thanks you

      Bob Parsons

      Hi Bob

      I too have Burrows family in Oxfordshire. By early 1800s they were in Holton and Wheatfield and surrounding parishes. Before that, we think the same regions - many Burrows, we have suspicions, not yet confirmed.
      Probably towards Thame and Aylesbury, Ottmoor.. Blenheim when it was being built. All perhaps. Family names are common - and include James, Thomas, William and Charles for the men. We suspect also John may be a family name
      - again, not sure.

      If you think it possible there is a connection, please - I would love to hear from you

      No likely marriage in Witney, for either name.
      Can't see anything in overall marr index for female BURROWS (various spellings) or male BIGGARS (ditto).
      Haven't got the bit for female GREGORY.l

      Sorry . . . DaveB
