• Name: William L. OGLESBY
• Sex: M
• Birth: ABT. 1782 in Goochland Cty, VA
• Death: UNKNOWN
• Note: Karen Scales had originally provided information that Thomas K. Oglesby was the possible father of C.D. As of 29 Jun 00, she found the 1850 Christian Cty census with C.D., age 6, living in the household of Benjamin F. and Cynthia (Dukes) Oglesby. The chart A.B. Willhite provided in May 00 had shown Benjamin Franklin Oglesby and Cynthia Ann Dukes as C.D.'s parents, with William L. Oglesby as B.F.'s father. World Family Tree files to William L. support this.

NOTE: George Oglesby is the s/o Stephen Decatur Oglesby and Louisa B.
Knight. Stephen Decatur Oglesby is the s/o Constant Jacob Oglesby, Jr.
and Nancy Knight. Stephen is also the brother of Gustavas Adolphus
Oglesby who married Mary Elizabeth Shelton - making George above the
nephew of Mary Shelton. I do not have the wife of George, so do not know
who is the mother of the children above. Any ancestors of Mary Elizabeth
Shelton and Gustavas Oglesby would find this information important, so I
am posting this to the Shelton list even though they are not Sheltons.
