International Speare Family Gathering

Oxford, UK

Friday 25th October to Sunday 27th October  2013

Oxford University

 

Dear All,

It is now a few years since the UK family gatherings in Exeter, Plymouth & US gathering in St Charles.  I am going to start work on organising another family gathering in the Oxford area in October 2013.

The work on the Speare family tree continues, in the last year I have been able to fill in several branches and link up with new family members.  I am hoping that the most recent parish records to my collection may help in taking the tree back further or give some clues where to look next.  I will keep the family website at http://www.speare.info up to date with all the latest developments.

Best wishes



Thomas
