Thanks Paul - and yes, it could be. The 'Long' came from other family mentions, though I had no documentation that insisted it was Long Hanborough. Sylvie did subsequently get me a lot closer, in Long Hanborough, with the enumerator's census book though - I hadn't been able to view that. Chris
as to Long Hanborough or Church Hanborough, although Archie's address in 1911 states just Hanborough other houses state Long Hanborough. I looked at the enumerator's list for the village which shows the following in street order: Swan Inn although this is not shown as the address for Archie's next door neighbours, the Turners, the occupants details match. private house Archie Dunkley Witney Road, again details match his neighbours on that side so definitely at the Witney Road end of 'Millwood' Wendy -----Original Message----- From: Chris Howes Sent: Thursday, July 21, 2011 11:57 AM To: oxfordshire@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [OXF] House in Hanborough > Several postcards to the family simply show the address as > 'Hanborough, > Woodstock'. > > Why have you expressly mentioned Long Hanborough ?
