Needs Development: This profile was just put under management of the Magna Carta Project and needs development against the project's checklist to bring it up to current project standards. ~ Thiessen-117 16:58, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
Needs Source Check: The profile's citations to Richardson appear to be via Marlyn Lewis's database and need to be verified/updated (I've done the check for death information). ~ Noland-165 16:30, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Banbury is in Oxfordshire, too often on WikiTree places are set in the wrong counties or even countries, there are four in the United Kingdom, even allowing for century boundary changes.
Sorry Liz, as far as I know there is only one Banbury, what I meant was places are put in the wrong county and sometimes in the wrong country (there are four countries) and the UK has had a habit of moving the boundary lines of counties over the centuries (and even changing county names), none of which helps accurate placing of a village or even a town.
But I guess it gives local and national planners something to do.
Thanks for the explanation & I totally understand (I work with Virginia counties from the beginning - one of my favorite Virginia ancestor was born, married, & died in three different counties but he never moved).
I'll be adopting this profile for the Magna Carta Project. Douglas Richardson's Magna Carta Ancestry shows her on a trail to the Bigods (see Herbert-268#Magna Carta Trails).

and the text says she died in Wales! I'll see what I can find out.
BUT. I'm geographically challenged & you lost me with "there are four in the United Kingdom, even allowing for century boundary changes".
If there are four - assuming you mean Banbury - why Oxfordshire and not one of the other ones?

Hi!
I'll be adopting this profile for the Magna Carta Project. Douglas Richardson's Magna Carta Ancestry shows her on a trail to the Bigods (see Herbert-268#Magna Carta Trails).
