    3. Randy, The only other Oakley I saw was a man named Charles Oakley. He was listed in the early census records. Ancestry.com says he lived in Cecil County, but if you look at the actual page, it's Charles. Linda Reno -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of C Greenwell Sent: Sunday, May 15, 2011 11:38 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [MDSTMARY] W. Richard Oakley Hi Linda, Source for dau. Mamie, Fresco, P. 428. Source for DOB and DOD for Violetta and the DOD for W. Richard Oakley - This info is from a Higgs family bible. This bible is in the possession of a descendant of Sophia E. Higgs. It was looked at by a cousin who transcribed the information. The bible is badly damaged and some info was not readable. The bible includes a death notice for "W Richard Oakley, died 2 Oct 1833 in the 52 year of his age, funeral 31 Oct." and the birth and death dates for Violetta Oakley. This is newly obtained info for me and I am going to try and get photos of the pages. Another interesting tidbit I have recently uncovered.... Sophia E. Higgs, wife of John Tracy, was born 29 Jul 1829 and died 20 Feb 1859. She is burried at Christ Church Cementary, Chaptico. John Tracy's first wife and mother of his daughter Caroline, is Mary Eleanor ______ Tracy, who is also buried at Christ Church, died Feb 1850. This info comes from descendants of Emily Tracy, daughter of John Tracy and Sophia Higgs. I have 2 separate sources for this info and both are identical. Again, I have asked for copies of the bible pages. Once I have confirmed the info for Sophia E. Higgs, this will pretty much solve the mystery of her being the widow of Wilson Higgs because she would have been too young to be his wife or the mother of Alfred Turner Higgs, who was born in July 1842. Do you have any info for the parents of W. Richard Oakley and his siblings?
