I am looking for the Otley behind the name of the town of Otley in Marion County, Iowa and Otley Street in the town of Leighton, Iowa. I am guessing it is James W. Otley who was born 23 January 1820 in England and died 2 January 1888 in Iowa. His wife was Eleanor Janeson (or Jameson or Jansen, depending on the source) who was born 20 October 1817 in England and died 10 January 1892. Appears the couple had no children that survived them, and lost a little boy named Richard born 6 October 1850 and died 23 June 1851 in Philadephia, PA. Stones for all three are at Woodland Cemetery in Des Moines, Iowa.

I think this James W. Otley was heavily involved as an engineer for the Des Moines River Valley Railroad that came up from Keokuk and more or less created the need for the towns of Otley and Leighton, and therefore his name remains.

Would appreciate any details on "the story" behind this Otley family for a history project I'm working on.

Thanks,

Calvin

Trying to track down relatives for Ronald F. Pokorski. His mother was Virgina Pokorski NEE: Klejbach). She had a sister named Irene Klejbach Otley married to Harry. Ronald lived in Pittsburgh until after his military tour in the 1960's he then moved to Wisconsin.

Are you Irene's son? If you are, Ronald would love to hear from you. Please e-mail us your telephone number so he can talk with you. He's been out of touch with all his relatives from his mother's side.

I am a friend of Ronald's. Please contact me at my e-mail address so I can give you Ronald's phone number, or you can leave him yours.

I have just realised why i have been unable to find so many of my Ancestors on various BMD index's and census's , i always thought my Grandmothers maiden name had been Ottley with the double T but it seems that some members of my family used the single T. If anyone out there has any connection to a William George Otley or Ottley who was born in Ongar Essex, UK in 1842 then i'd be glad to hear from you.William married Emma Winter in 1869 and they went on to have 8 children .Henry,Thomas,James,William,Louisa,Emma,James and Elizabeth.Their main location was around Peckham,Camberwell,Walworth.

Re: Fred Otley

2003-07-12 01:01:05Z

I'm looking for info on my grandfather whom I always was told was named Harry Spering Otley; born in Philadelphia in 1876. My father, Harry Cornelius Otley, was born in Stuebenville, Ohio but his family ended up living in Pittsburgh where my grandfather died in 1928 when my dad was only 8 years of age. Because of this, I don't know a whole lot about him. I've recently located his gravesite in Pittsburgh's St. Mary's Cemetery. The headstone reads Harry S. Otley, but cemetery records have him as Henry Otley. Recently, I've sent for a death certificate on my dad's baby brother who died when he was 1. On this death certificate my grandfather's name is given as William Henry Spearing Otley as the name of provider, but on the bottom of said certificate his name is also written as (Harry Otley). I've tried to obtain death certificates under the names of Harry S. Otley and Henry S. Otley, but I've been sent letters saying there is no official record on file. I want to find out my ancestry but don't know what name he was born with. Can anyone help? Thank you.
