We need your help
Do you have any information about the Wareham name? Whether you’ve known someone named Wareham, Warham, or a variant like Whareham—or if you’ve come across the name in records or memories—we’d love to hear from you!
We’re seeking insights into who the Warehams and Warhams were, who they are today, and whether they’d be interested in exploring their family tree.
As part of the Wareham Project™, we’ve built a database containing tens of thousands of records, tracing individuals with the Wareham name back to circa 1086—including Hugh Wareham (Haduidis filia Nicholai De Baschelvilla, uxor Hugonis de Varham (Warham) fillii Griponis)—right up to the present day. Each record holds research details specific to the individual, helping piece together a rich and evolving family history
Explore our presentations showcasing the incredible progress we’ve made so far! More discoveries are on the way, but verifying data, cross-referencing details, and preparing accurate presentations takes time—so we appreciate your patience as we refine them.
We’re actively searching for any reference to the name Wareham, Warham, or its variations. Every mention matters!
Did you know there’s a town named Wareham in Dorset and another in the U.S.? We’ve also uncovered Warham House in London and Guildford, Warham Road in Croydon, Warham Bridge in Surrey, Wareham House in Oxfordshire, and even Wareham Street in Hoxton, London—featured on Charles Booth’s map (c.1898/9). But where else does the name appear? Your insights could unlock vital connections!
Even the smallest detail might be the missing piece in our research. If you’ve encountered the name in documents, places, or personal connections, please reach out via the Contact page—your knowledge could make a real difference. Thank you for being part of this journey!

Please Note: the presenation is in MS SWAY, however the embedding process into WordPress has not preserved the frame transition so the full effect of the animations are lost. It appears WordPress can not support the full MS SWAY animations.
