Many of my ancestors lived in South Leigh/Southleigh or in the surrounding villages, Cogges, High Cogges North Leigh, Eynsham, Stanton Harcourt, Ducklington.

I am tracing the family tree of the village using, census images, parish registers, newspapers and any other information I can find.

Plans

I visited the village this summer and took pictures of many of the buildings that currently exist. The plan is to create map/maps showing the village changing through time.

Connecting profiles of all the residents of the village and finding their places in the family tree.
