Cheryl, It is good to meet a cousin. You're right - Jasper Philip Newton "Newt" Oglesbee was the son of Mary Ann Elizabeth Hillis and William R. Oglesbee. Mary Hillis Oglesbee's older sister, Mariah Hillis, married Green Washington Oglesbee. I believe that Green and William were cousins, I know that they weren't brothers. Anyway, apparently Newt was working for his Aunt Mariah, and was living with them during the census. By the way, Louise Oglesbee Chandler lives in his old place, near the Burke-Screven County line. Furthermore, I recently ran across the Confederate Widow's pension, where Mary stated that she was the widow of William Oglesbee, who was in Company D, 48th Georgia Infantry. He died of dysentery (according to family legend, he'd eaten a poisoned apple and died) at Mount Jackson, Virginia on 30 Oct 1862, and is buried there in a marked grave. Interestingly enough, Green Oglesbee also died on this day, but in Staunton, Virginia of wounds received at the Battle of Antietam, Maryland. Strange coincidence, isn't it? Anyway, I plan to visit William's grave this summer. Mary Ann Elizabeth Hillis Oglesbee is buried next to her parents, Mariah McMillan and John H. Hillis, at Bethlehem Cemetery in Burke County near Girard. My great-grandparents, Eugenia Ann Virginia "Genia" Oglesbee and William Thomas Morris, along with Eugenia's sister, Mary "Arelya" Ann Oglesbee Wilkins, are buried next to Mary. I hope that this is of help. Please keep in touch. Happy hunting! Scottie Scott
