The Oakleys in America, the Long Island, New York Branch The Oakleys in America - The Long Island, New York Branch by David R. Oakley (Compiler) Special Edition Created for Eric Jones December 9, 2008 The Oakleys in America - The Long Island, New York Branch Introduction This is a genealogical study of a portion of the Oakley family -- however spelled, and over 60 alternatives have so far come to light. The family's roots are in Shropshire, England; some of the details of which are presented elsewhere. This particular study about the Long Island Branch is an update of an earlier, similarly named report by the writer in 1999. My sources of information are cited throughout. They will usually be found in the "notes" for each person. Otherwise they will be found in the material about their parents or grandparents. Although this approach presents some repetition in biographical references throughout the study, when looking up any given person the relevant references are conveniently at hand. This minimizes a need to page back and forth elsewhere for them. Along with many other sources identified throughout this study, the principal sources to whom I am however deeply grateful are these, without whom this study would not have been possible. They are: Mitzi Caputo, now deceased, former Executive Director, and Philip Behr, Trustee, of the Huntington Historical Society, Huntington, Long Island, New York, who most graciously made the considerable resources of that organization available to me at considerable length on several occasions some years ago. Richard Oakley Hunsaker, Kaysville, Utah, who graciously shared his painstaking, carefully documented and voluminous material about certain persons who, although documented as Oakley and related family members in Dutchess County, New York, have "Long Island Oakley" ancestors as well. David A. Oakley, West Jordan, Utah, who has also graciously shared his painstaking, carefully documented and voluminous work over the years on both the English ancestry and the Long Island Branch of the Oakley family. This material is produced using "Family Tree Maker" software. And although that software provides a professional appearance to the finished product, this work is limited in scope and may well contain errors and omissions introduced by me, the "compiler." I think that is an apt description of what I have done since my primary contribution has been that of organizing and presenting material developed by others rather than by performing original work to extend and expand knowledge of the Oakley family. As one reads through the main text, a sense of déjà vu may occur. Although I have not taken the time to trace the details, the records of some persons are actually "re-presented" on later pages because of intermarriages between cousins resulting in multiple relationships. I leave that investigation to others. 1 The Oakleys in America - The Long Island, New York Branch Any errors or omissions are my responsibility for which I apologize in advance.

  • 94 GREENWICH STREET HOUSE, 94 Greenwich Street (Aka 14-18 Rector Street), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission June 23, 2009, Designation List 414 LP-2218 94 GREENWICH STREET HOUSE, 94 Greenwich Street (aka 14-18 Rector Street), Manhattan. Built c. 1799-1800; fourth story added by 1858; rear addition c. 1853/1873. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 53, Lot 41. On January 30, 2007, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the 94 Greenwich Street House and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 1). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Twelve people spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation, Municipal Art Society of New York, New York Landmarks Conservancy, and Historic Districts Council. In addition, the Commission received a number of communications in support of designation, including a letter from Augustine Hicks Lawrence III, a sixth-generation descendant of the original owner. One of the property’s owners, who oppose designation, appeared at the June 23, 2009, public meeting and requested a postponement of the vote. The building had been previously heard by the Commission on October 19, 1965, and June 23, 1970 (LP-0049). Summary The Federal style rowhouse at No. 94 Greenwich Street in Lower Manhattan was constructed c.1799-1800 as an investment property, right after this block was created through landfill and Greenwich and Rector Streets had been laid out. At the time, this was the most fashionable neighborhood for New York’s social elite and wealthy merchant class.

    -1- COLUMBIA AND SLAVERY: A PRELIMINARY REPORT Eric Foner Drawing on papers written by students in a seminar I directed in the spring of 2015 and another directed by Thai Jones in the spring of 2016, all of which will soon be posted in a new website, as well as my own research and relevant secondary sources, this report summarizes Columbia’s connections with slavery and with antislavery movements from the founding of King’s College to the end of the Civil War. Significant gaps remain in our knowledge, and investigations into the subject, as well as into the racial history of the university after 1865, will continue. -2- 1. King’s College and Slavery The fifth college founded in Britain’s North American colonies, King’s College, Columbia’s direct predecessor, opened its doors in July 1754 on a beautiful site in downtown New York City with a view of New York harbor, New Jersey, and Long Island. Not far away, at Wall and Pearl Streets, stood the municipal slave market. But more than geographic proximity linked King’s with slavery. One small indication of the connection appeared in the May 12, 1755 issue of the New-York Post-Boy or Weekly Gazette. The newspaper published an account of the swearing-in ceremony for the college governors, who took oaths of allegiance to the crown administered by Daniel Horsmanden, a justice of the colony’s Supreme Court. The same page carried an advertisement for the sale of “two likely Negro Boys and a Girl,” at a shop opposite Beekman’s Slip, a wharf at present-day Fulton Street.
