    1. Re: [MDSTMARY] Another OAKLEY question- Does anyone have information on anOakley family who went to NC?
    2. mcvoy- treon
    3. RE: Oakley surname Does anyone have information on an Oakley family who migrated to Person Co. NC in the later 1700's? This family had a Thomas Oakley (b.ca. 1800) who married 06 Jan 1824 to a Mary "Polly" Suit. They then had a son named Tinsley Oakley (b.ca. 1828) Granville Co. NC who married 07 Apr 1851 to a Susan Suit. Thanks for any information on any Oakley family that may have migrated to Granville or Person Co. NC. B. Treon
