Dear Listers, This is my first message to this list. I have just discovered that my great grandfather, JAMES OXBERRY was apparently born in Scotland about 1850-ish. He puts this as his place of birth in the 1851 census. He later married Ellen BRAITHWAITE of Thirsk. I have no idea whereabouts in Scotland he was born, or the names of his parents. Can anyone give me a lead, please, I would be most grateful. Regards to all, Pam Studd in Essex.
