How you can help
A significant number of individuals mentioned in the correspondence of Sir George Oxenden, 1662-1669, remain unidentified.

You could contribute to identifying these individuals in several ways.
Firstly, you could make an identification and write a short foot note supported by primary and/or secondary sources to accompany the letter or letters in which the individual is mentioned.
Secondly, you could write a short biographical profile and post it to the wiki, using the standard biographical template
