The Owram/Ouram family of Wragby
« on: Wednesday 07 October 15 20:19 BST (UK) »
I've managed to trace my ancestry back to a man named Henry Owram who was born in Wragby, Yorkshire, in 1630. I know that his father was also called Henry Owram, and there was a couple called Nicholas and Johanna Ouram who were having children in Wragby in the 1580s and 90s, though I can't find a birth record for Henry Snr.
I have found a legal document dated 1633 that names a Henry Owram and Nicholas Owram (among others) who seem to be involved in some sort of dispute over land near Ryhill: http://mss-cat.nottingham.ac.uk/DServe/dserve.exe?dsqIni=Dserve.ini&dsqApp=Archive&dsqDb=Catalog&dsqCmd=show.tcl&dsqSearch=%28RefNo==%22Ga1%2F9201-11846%2F9746-9789%2F9751%22%29
Does anyone know any more?

Have you looked to see if anyone is researching this family by looking at the Surname Interests tab, under  Your Tools, below?

Aah! I didn't realise there was such a thing.
No, no-one has listed them as an interest.  :(
