Notes for Frances Oglesby
Death record from Red Oak Baptist Church records, Oakville, Buckingham/Appomattox Co., Virginia: "Frances Davidson, female, death 1/20/1860, died in Appomattox Co. Va. of old age, age 77, parents Richard and Mary Oglesby, born Campbell Co., reported by Samuel davidson, Husband."
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.
