Results are presented from uvby beta photometric observations of 34 stars in the fields of NGC 2244 and NGC 2264. Photometric and astrometric indicators suggest that about a third of the sample are nonmembers of the clusters. Cluster color excesses are determined for the two clusters. For the stars examined, log g and effective temperature are estimated. Also, stellar radii, masses, and positions in the H-R diagram are calculated. The cluster ages and the main-sequence lifetime for massive stars show that star formation in the region has not been restricted to a single epoch.
