Do you have any dates for any of these? Are you stuck on finding out something in partciular?

Let me know if you'd like photos taking of specific places.
There are some old photos on the Charlbury web-site (http://www.charlbury.info/cgi-bin/dindex.cgi)

Charlbury cemetery contains the following headstones:

L39/2
John EELES, d14 Jul 1935 aged 83 and his wife
Edith EELES, d23 Mar 1950 aged 83

R11/7
Flora EELES, d27 Dec 1960 aged 69
Frank EELES, d11 Jan 1964 aged 67

R21/2
Albert John EELES, d26 Aug 1915 aged 23 - died of wounds in the Dardanelles.

L22/8
Ada SHAYLER, d10 Oct 1989 aged 69 and her husband

L23/4
Caroline SHAYLER, d12 Dec 1946

R3/5
Kate SHAYLER, d18 Nov 1977 aged 9 dy

I've indexed the whole cemetery and the letter and numbers above each entry locate where the graves are in the cemetery at the top of Pound Hill in Charlbury. L=left of the path, R=right of the path. The graves are arranged in rows, the first number is the row in from the main entrance, after the oblique stroke, the second number is how many graves it is from the path. So L23/4 is a grave on the left of the path, 23 rows into the cemetery and the fourth grave in from the path........well, it makes sense to me.

Geoffers has helped me enormously with information about relatives in Charlbury and elsewhere and Janiegirl has information on our Eeles family which she can pass on to you.
The Leafield website - http://www.leafieldvillage.co.uk/leafield_families.htm - has heaps of information about Leafield - it even includes how many Eeles lived there in 1851.
Hope you find it of interest.:)
