Notes:

"At least one source lists Peter as a son of Jacob Oglesby, but I have seen no direct evidence that this is so. It is, however, likely, since Jacob Oglesby was living in Amherst Co at the time of Peter & Sally's marriage."

Possibly a daughter of the Thomas Pratt who was granted 150 acres of land on the branches of the south fork of Rockfish River in Amherst County, Virginia in 1792 [the online image for this grant shows that Pratt already owned land contiguous to this new grant]. This Thomas may in turn be the same as he granted 400 acres of land in Culpepper Co. in 1766.

Research Notes:
In 2009 when John had his YDNA test the results came back as match in 37 and 67 tests. No common denominator was found. On Feb 27, 2013, a tester in the Oglesby group, Richard Arthur (Oglesby) Wilson, was a match to him in the 37, with a step 2 match. As it turned out, the Sheltons married into the Oglesby line with the marriage of Gustavas Adolphus Oglesby, so assuming that must be the reason the Shelton line showed a match.
Richard Arthur descends from Jesse Oglesby; and Gustavas descends from Contant, Sr., Jesse and Contant being brothers, Jacob Oglesby being their father, making Jesse the great-uncle of Gustavas.

Jacob^ married Ann Bailey on 14 Feb 1760 in St. James Northam, Goochland Co, Virginia. Ann was born about 1740 in of, Goochland or Albemarle Co, Virginia; died before 1780 in of, Albemarle Co, Virginia. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Subject - Personal Pratt, Thomas. grantee.

[There was an earlier grant to a Thomas Pratt in Culpeper Co. for 216 acres bearing date 11 August 1766, which may have been the Thomas father of Sally; however, there is a Thomas Pratt, age over 45, enumerated in the 1820 Culpepper Co. census, so the evidence here is not conclusive.]
___________

[I have at least temporarily assigned Sarah, James, William, John and David Pratt as children of the Thomas Pratt who was demonstrably in Amherst Co., Virginia in 1792. The evidence is the 1792 land record; the fact that Sarah was married in Amherst Co.; and the extensive census/marriage records of the Pratt family in Knox Co., Tennessee.--vto 2008]
