« on: Friday 27 May 05 23:38 BST (UK)  »
 HI folks, I am looking for this book,
In West Oxford : Historical Notes and Pictures concerning the Parish of St. Thomas the Martyr, Oxford.  Author:  Thomas W Squires
I understand on   page 123 'Abel Beesley. A famous champion punter' is featured.   I believe that this was my grandfathers punting partner

Does anyone have any info on this book, I have found one to buy and they want 150.00 USD  a little steep for a few pages, does anyone have one there that they can help me out with
