I think there has to be two Williams. There is a marriage of a William Dixon to a Mary Wheeler on 27 Mar 1815 at S under W. Witnesses John Wheeler and Anne Dixon. I think he is the one who was b in Ramsden in 1776 as in 1851 census and died in 1856.

As to the William (who married Martha): looks like he died before 1841, dob and birthplace unknown.

I thought I might have found our William's death in S under W on 6 Jan 1841, but he was 87 (GrO record agrees with age). That seems far too old to have fathered a child in 1839 and to have first marriage in 1802.

Mary daughter of William and Jane Dixon of Ramsden Baptism 23 Oct 1803 Shipton Under Wychwood.

Not sure about this 7 miles away?

Jane Dixon Baptism 11 Sep 1808 Northleigh (North Leigh)
William & Jane

William was admitted into the church after being baptised at St Michaels Bristol.

My error I'm afraid on Ancestry. Last entry, Jane baptised 1808 is correct and it states of Ramsden. Parents William & Jane Dixon.

An entry just above, on a very small page in Oxfordshire baptisms, is the reference to William, I have just read it again, a different Wm & Jane.
If you look for Jane above you will see it.

Apologies Colin, I should have gone to Spec Savers!

Thank you LizzieL and ColC.

There are several Williams. And with Dixon being spelt in quite a few different spellings, unravelling the details has not been easy. Regarding “Jason Dixon s/o William married Eliza Millin in Nov 1851. Is the Jason Millin (lodger) with Martha in 1851, a relative of his future wife? Jason Dixon appears to be in Oxford gaol in 1851” Jason Dixon was my 2nd great-grandfather. He was indeed in Oxford gaol in 1850 and then again in 1851. Between 1852 and 1857, there were at least 5 court cases he was involved. A bit of a Jack the lad!!

No need to Apologize. Let’s face it some of these documents are not easy to read. I am just grateful for any replies.
I will print all comments and review accordingly.
My thanks to both of you.
