I should also have mentioned in my last post, that Emanuel or Emmanuel KEARSEY who was recorded at Oxleaze Farm, Sevenhampton, in the 1901 Census, was in fact a cousin of Clara Emma ROBERTS. Emanuel Joseph KEARSEY died at age 19, in 1912.

With regard to this topic started by Merilyn64todhunter:

The Oxleaze Farm that Merilyn is referring to is in the parish of Woolstone, near the village of Uffington and the town of Faringdon, and is now in the County of Oxfordshire.  Up until 1974 when the County boundaries were changed, Woolstone was in the County of Berkshire.

Hi, I couldn't help noticing your message as my Great Grandfather was living at Oxleaze Farm in 1921 and he died there in 1921, aged 74, his name was David Whitney and his wife was called Mary Jane.  I think that after he died, his wife sold the farm and married someone else and went back to Wales. I know this probably isn't much help to you, but it was just a suprise to see Oxleaze Farm on the notice board,

Regards,
