George Jones
A Memory of Watlington.
Hi,
I have recently traced my family back to George Jones born abt 1811/12 in Aston Rowant where he lived with his wife Jane and Son William. Other than the fact that he was an Agricultural Labourer and Jane a Lacemaker I know little else of them. If anyone can help I would love to talk to you, even if you have an old street map of the village or any old photo's. I recently travelled to Aston Rowant but although a beautiful village I would love to know how it looked years ago.
With Kind regards
Sharon Jones

But this is what you wanted:
George Jones baptised 2nd August 1811, the son of John and Charlotte Jones.
This record and all parish records for that church are available in a transcribed format on CD.
Aston Rowant was part of the Thame District, and if you look on the Oxfordshire Family History site:
http://www.ofhs.org.uk/
the disk you want is their reference: OXF-TH02. Costs about £15 from memory?
The records for Aston Rowant date back to 1554 and a few other parishes included on same disk.
