Family History Research
If your ancestors came from the Oxton area and you would like some assistance with your family history research, the History Group will be happy to help if we can.
We helped Rosanne Rappazini from Washington State, USA, to trace her Oxton family and put her in touch with a cousin in the area – read her story.
History of your house
If you would like to find out about the history of your Oxton house, or the people who lived in it, the History Group may be able to help.
