One Name Studies: N to S / Re: Oatley

This is a ridiculously late reply to your message from last June

...really not sure what happened there, I'm afraid.

Anyway; apologies...I am aware of Oatleys from Melksham but personally haven't researched that line at all as yet. I also know there are Welsh ones; but again, haven't got a lot of info. I find it quite strange because my uncle was born and raised in Somerset, married a Welsh girl and moved over there - to Glamorgan, where of course there were Oatleys already!

Sorry I can't be more help, and sorry again for the LOOoooooNG delay.

Hi, thanks for the link. I had come across it before some time ago, but forgot about it so it's nice to have the info now.

Yes, I don't think we're an especially adventurous bunch - I've moved about 12 miles in 40 years myself!!

Wales / Oatley

My maiden name was Oatley and I am attempting some general research into the name, not just my own ancestors. I would love to hear from anyone who either is an Oatley or has them in their tree - Kim

My own Oatleys are mostly from Somerset; would love to hear from anyone who either is an Oatley or has them in their tree.

Interested in all Oatleys from anywhere at all!

Mine are mostly from Somerset and I am especially interested in them; but would like to hear from anyone who either is an Oatley or has them in their tree. I am attempting the beginnings of a general study on the name and would like any info at all.

Thanks

There's a Nunney in Somerset, relatively close to the Wiltshire border.

Somerset Lookup Requests / Re: Blenmans from Shepton Mallet

« on: Friday 04 May 07 16:28 BST (UK) »

As an ex-Sheptonian...the surname Blinman is very common to the town, but I haven't heard of any Blenmans. But I suppose they could've started as Blenman and ended up as Blinman..!

Incidentally, Norman is another well-know Shepton name.

Just some observations...I know it doesn't really help...
