SCOON Records with Given names starting with O

This page lists individuals whose surname was SCOON or one of its variants and had the first given name starting with O.

The format of the table is hopefully largely explanatory, but some abbeviations are used to limit the size of the files:

Each individual's record has a unique ID. There is no significance to the number except that it corresponds to the ID on the database which I use!
Within letters, records are grouped in name groups (e.g. Elizabeth, Elisabeth, Eliza, etc) and are ordered by date of birth within those groups
Surnames are shown in upper case and are normally omitted where the surname is SCOON (except in the 'Married' column)
In the mother/father/spouse columns, ID number may follow the name to ease identification - this is always done for SCOON entries
For dates '-- --- YYYY' means that there is an identifiable index entry for the event in that year; 'abt YYYY' is used for estimated dates. e.g. from census entries, MIs, etc, 'abt YYYY/YY' is an estimated range used to order the records
Where a cell has the value "?" this indicates that there is a missing value which I have yet to trace - suggestions always welcome!
Census entries are basically in the format <reference> <address> ; <occupation>.
At this stage, the coverage of census references is limited.
Census entries may be headed by *Fa (father) *Mo (mother) *Sp (spouse) *Br (brother) *Un (uncle) *FL, *ML, *BL (father, etc in law) etc. These indicate that this relative was the head of the household .
When the relative identified in this way has his/her own entry, the reference/address fields are omitted for the other family members.
When the relative identified does not have their entry some identification is normally given, e.g. *SL (James Smith, Butcher)
Where no census data is available (e.g. USA 1890) an alternative is used if available (e.g. Voter registration)
