Hello Everyone I am in Australia and hope that I have the correct group to ask this query - I hope Shenington comes within the area of Banbury. My GGrandmother Mary Ann COLEMAN (father's place of birth unknown) was born in Galway, Ireland but was apparently sent to Oxford by her brother when her parents died which was around 1873. I found her in Shenington on the 1881 census married to William Edward UPTON - they married Oct 1877. My main query is: Would she have had to report to anyone coming from Ireland to live in Shenington and if so would there be any records? I would love to know who she was sent to live with before getting married in case it was maybe a relative. Mary Ann married Walter BERRY when William Edward UPTON died in 1900 and they went to live in Coventry. Thanks for any help and if anyone is interested in the UPTON or SAVAGE names I would love to hear from them as I have traced both families in Shennington. Jeannie Email: jhodkinson@hotmail.com
