These records have been extracted from the larger Stockton, Sons & Fortescue (S&F) collection, which was deposited as accessions 344 (March 1959) and 1707 (January 1980). S&F were a large solicitors firm based in Banbury, and dealt with a wide selection of family, estate, business, manorial, personal, tithe, enclosure, organisation and corporation business. Part of their remit appears to have been as clerks to the manorial courts of Bloxham Fiennes and Bloxham Beauchamp.
Oxfordshire History Centre holds an excellent collection of manorial court rolls for Bloxham Fiennes and Bloxham Beauchamp in collection 'Saye', covering the period 1339-1932. The records in this M6 collection are supplementary to those in Saye and researchers may find it helpful to consult both catalogues for a full overview of the records available.
Further information on the Bloxham manorial courts can be found in the Victoria County History of Oxfordshire, Volume 9 (Bloxham Hundred)
