Wells st,Oxford st-What county?
« on: Sunday 08 July 07 02:53 BST (UK) »
Hello,
My convict ancestor James Dooley has Wells St, Oxford St as his native place. Could someone tell me what county it is in and where it is. James was b abt 1821 and was a protestant. To have any chance of tracing his roots I need to know what the closest church would be or any suggestions any one can offer.
Thanks
Shauna
Ps I have looked at some of the websites suggested by other rootschatters and have found the place but no detail

think it might be Middlesex. You would get a better informed opinion on the Middlesex or London board.
