List of Surnames researched
Column 1 is the full list of names we are searching – about 1550 – with the core variants. There are many other variant spellings in our records but they not listed here for reasons of space.
Column 2 contains “Yes” to indicate the top 400 or so names we are researching as a priority.
Column 3 contains “Yes” to indicate those surnames for which we have Y-DNA available in the Oxfordshire DNA project.
All three of these categories will change over time as we review each surname in detail. If several people with the same surname have a DNA test it may move a surname into the top 400 list if it is not already there.

Comments about this page
Hello Denise,
The list of surnames with ‘Yes’ against them are names that we consider strongly ‘Oxfordshire’ or very important in Oxfordshire. Hence Fidler is marked but not Williams. The Surname/DNA project is a research project. As part of the project we are encouraging people with those Oxfordshire names to get DNA tested, especially males. We are also asking that anyone with those core names send us summary information they have on their family so we can build up a bigger picture of Oxfordshire surnames and get back in touch with them when we get to doing work involving their specific name. Combined with original research we are doing, we are using the data for a number of outputs. We are in the process of writing a book based on deeper research into Oxfordshire surnames. We are also producing summary pages of individual names over time and long term, a large database of all records found in as many original sources as possible on that name from medieval times to 1900. The last two are likely to be available only to OFHS members, so we’d be very happy if you would like to join the Society. Those will be the methods used to send information out, rather than replying to individual queries. Unfortunately we don’t have the capacity to do that and do not have permission to share all that we have. I hope you understand. If you have a query about Oxfordshire parish records (baptisms, marriages, burials) on your names though, you can contact our Search Service which can supply you with that information (see website resources). I hope this helps.

I noticed that my Fidler/Fiddler ancestors are listed on your page with a ‘YES’ in the second column. My Williams ancestors don’t rate as well.
Does that mean that you are collecting or have collected material on the Fidler/Fidler family. If so, I am interested in obtaining a copy of that information, if possible. At present I am not a member of your society, so I realise a cost may be involved. My above ancestors were from Bampton//Hailey/Witney areas.
