ArchivesOxnard
My late father in law had Oxnard as his middle name. I think it may come from somewhere in the north east of England but have never come across it other than as the middle name of one or two of his family.
Any clues?

Oxnard comes from Old English oxan 'oxen' + hierde 'herdsman'. It's a relatively common surname in the UK and the US.
