Mckerrow in St Clements, Oxford
« on: Tuesday 25 October 05 22:19 BST (UK) »
I am trying to trace the parents of William Mckerrow who married in Oakley,Bucks in 1833 at the age of 19 with his parents consent. It states on the parish registers that he (they?) came from St Clements, Oxford.
I would be grateful to anyone who could help me out with any mention of any Mckerrows during this period in Oxford or who can suggest ways forward that I could take with this.
many thanks

Hi Pad ...

Had a look for McKERROW (also variants MacKERROW/McKERROW/MACKERROW/MAKERROW!) on the OFHS's Marriage Index (1538-1837), but nobody of this name listed.

Sorry.

Many thanks pennie, for your prompt reply. I suspect that they moved to Oxford sometime before 1833 and maybe, from your info, moved again.
I wonder if they were all tea dealers as he was one. Do you have any access to directories of that time?
All the best

Hi Pad ...

You can search the 1830 Pigot's Oxford Directory here:

http://www.british-genealogy.com/resources/books/directories/fwc025oxf/index.htm

and this is the website for UK directories:

www.historicaldirectories.org

Good hunting!
