Keziah White b abt 1830 on BCC

Keziah White here:

[sp1]

I believe her marriage is:
22 July 1850, St Thomas, Dudley
William 'Oxford ' & Keziah White - its on the IGI (ODM) but no other details.

'Oxford ' , it seems, should be Hawkeswood.
(Perhaps the vicar misheard and thought it was 'Orx-fud' - the place he went to university!!!

Anyway, to return to Keziah:
Looking for bapts and census found a reference to one of the children, William, as Oxford or Hawkeswood.

Found three children:
Joseph b 1851, Halesowen, reg 1851, March Quarter, Stourbridge, mother White
Ellen A b abt 1860, Halesowen
William, b 1862, Halesowen, reg 1872, March Quarter, Stourbridge, mother White
Registrations from GRO site

Just a thought: perhaps the Oxford/ Hawkeswood/ Hawkesford/ Hawkesworth families we come across are all the same? Doesn't make tracking them down easy!

I think I have come across most of these variants locally...

[sp1]

Just to add: William 'Hawkeswood ' seems to have been born about 1829/30, Halesowen or Cradley - from the census, which I can't post at the moment: doing this from phone.

Think this is his baptism:
5 Sept 1830, Cradley, Worcestershire, William s of Joseph & Eliza Hawkswood

Marr: 30 March 1830, Halesowen
Joseph Hawkswood & Eliza Cox

Just checked, William & Keziah Hawkswood are on BCC here:
