Men of Mark in Georgia (p. 524) states: "The first Oglesby of this line who came to Georgia was Thomas Oglesby. . . ; he was granted lands in Elbert County for services in the Revolutionary War, and settled at what is now known as Oglesby, Ga. Here Thomas Oglesby reared a family of ten children--nine boys and one girl." Note the discrepancy in total number of children; DAO shows 12 (9 boys and 3 girls), one of whom never left Virginia (Salley), so there is still a difference of one child--either Polly or Mary Lucinda.
