Hi! I am new to this Oakley List on Rootsweb. I live in Middle Tennessee - Franklin County, Tennessee and my husband, Jack, is related to the Oakley Family. His Great Great Grandfather was James Alfred Knight or James L. Knight who married Heneretta Oakley b. 6/18/1826 (from a Listing of Southern Claims Commission filed in Tennessee regarding Eunice D. Oakley and her farm that the Union Army during the Civil War took over - copy of which is in the Franklin County Library in Winchester, Tennessee) on December 14, 1843 in Franklin County, Tennessee. Jack and I go to various libraries in the surrounding counties from time to time and in my allotted time to do research, I always look for anything on the OAKLEY Family. I believe in sharing information so we all can find our Roots. I am also on OAKLEY-One List List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:OAKLEY-unsubscribe@ONElist.com> For information go to: <http://www.onelist.com> So I will post some of the information that I have posted on this list. Good luck in your researching of the Oakley Family. They are spread through several states and there is quite a bit of information here in Middle Tennessee. Carol Holt Middle Tennessee
