In 1875 Jacob Oglesby, grandson of Constant Sr. donated a plot of ground for a cemetery; this cemetery is southeast of White Plains, Kentucky, on a ridge that extends up from the Pond River bottom land. The road is named Oglesby Cemetery Road. Polly Oglesby, wife of Jacob, is probably the first person buried there as she died in 1877 and Jacob died in 1878; both have small markers under a large cedar tree in the cemetery, which is kept in good condition until the present time.
Sideboard has him as Thomas Jacob Oglesby, parents unknown.
RSH has him as the son of Jacob Oglesby Sr. (b. 1778 Va.) and Permelina Crabtree (b. 1790 in SC)
