Oxfordshire Family History Fair - Saturday October 7th 2023

The annual Family History Fair organised by the Society will take place on Saturday 7th October 2023. This year we are in a new location  – The Cooper School, Churchill Road, Bicester, Oxfordshire, OX26 4RS. Doors open at 10:00 close at 16:00.

If you have never been to a family history fair before here’s what to expect:

Firstly a very friendly welcome whether you are new to family history research or an old hand. You will find many enthusiastic and knowledgeable people ready to help with any of your queries. Please bring along any notes or photos you may have to get the most out of the day. There will be stalls run by the Oxfordshire Family History Society helpers with access to all the resources to find ancestors from within and without the county.

Also present on the day will be a number of other family history society stalls, other research groups and commercial companies selling materials, books, maps, CDs et cetera. The stallholders who have confirmed that they are coming are here.

Food and drink is also provided (until 15:15) by Good Food Catering.
