All The next meeting of the Oxfordshire Family History Society will take place on Monday 25 June 2012 at the usual venue at Exeter Hall, Oxford Road, Kidlington, Oxford OX5 1AB. Doors open at 7.15pm for coffee, help with both genealogy and computers, and the bookstall, exchange journals and the library. After a brief AGM at 8.00pm, the subject of the talk is "11626, Private Ernest Edward Fitchett". This will be presented by Alex McGahey. Our speaker Alex McGahey is well-known in OFHS circles as a current member of the computer group panel, and also as a recent Membership Secretary of the society. Alex has been researching his own family history since 1995 and has been conducting a "One-Name Study" of Beckingham, his maternal grandfather's name, since 2001 - although his research did actually commence with his maternal grandmother's name, Fitchett. Alex has an interest in the 1st World War, partly prompted by receipt of letters written home from the trenches by his Great Uncle Ernie who sadly did not survive 1915. His talk next Monday will be based on these letters and subsequent research. All members, potential members and their guests are welcome.
