What are the names of Annie Oakley's siblings,aunts uncles children,nieces nephews etc?

Question

My father's name is Mosey.I was told Annie Oakley is related to us.I never new my father or any of his relatives.I would like to have help finding where I came from and how I am connected.Thanks

My father,who died a few years ago was Francis Mosey,known as Frank.His father was Archibald?He came from Ohio.I searched and could find no birth or death records.Perhaps they used nick names?Maybe they were buried some where else.I have successfully traced my mother lineage 300 years on one line and 500 years on another thanks in part, to finding others who were also searching.My best bet with my father is to find someone who new them or are also searching.My Father had three wives.My mother was his second.They were estranged some 30 yrs ago.He had two children of his first wife,three from his second,and 1 from his third,also raised her children.I never knew him although I met him a few times.he had five siblings some who might still be living.He lived in the Windsor,Ontario area,where I think he was born?I think if I could trace down from John Henry Mosey this would answer my question too.Thanks

Answer 1

Here's just two sites that I picked out of the many in relation to Annie,
http://www.dorchesterlibrary.org/library/aoakley.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annie_Oakley
I don't know whether her siblings are named in any of the write-ups. You could try www.ancestry.com for the information you are looking for, hope this helps.

Answer 3

If you can trace your family back to John Mosey, born 1862 in Ohio then you're related. Annie Oakley's real name was Phoebe Ann Mosey. Annie Oakley was her stage name. She only had one brother, John Mosey.

Answer 4

Where Is Annie Oakley Buried

Answer 5

Answer 6

If your mother never told you your father's name, you're going to have to find it out. You are going to have to find HIS father and mother, too. Then you can start going back, generation by generation, except at each step you will have to stop and see if there is a daughter named Annie Oakley. If there is, she is your GGG Aunt. Here is what I paste every day about finding family trees. Best of luck!

========================
This is a text file I paste to questions like yours. People ask similar questions 3 - 14 times a day here. You get a long, detailed answer, I don't get finger cramps. It is long because there are over 400,000 free genealogy sites.

It is also long because researching your family tree is as hard as writing a term paper in a History class. You don't have to be a rocket scientist, but you won't do it with five clicks. I could tell you everything I know in 30 minutes, but not 3.

If you didn't mention a country, we can't tell if you are in the USA, UK, Canada or Australia. I'm in the USA and my links are for it. If you are not, please edit your question to add a country. Genealogists from the UK answer posts here too. They are more experienced and more intelligent than I am. I'm better looking and my jokes are better.

The really good stuff is in your parents' and grandparents' memories. No web site is going to tell you how your great grandparents decorated the Christmas tree with ornaments cut from tin foil during the depression, how Great Uncle Elmer wooed his wife with a banjo, or how Uncle John paid his way through college in the 1960's by smuggling herbs. Talk to your living relatives before it is too late.

You won't find living people on genealogy sites. Don't look for yourself or your parents.

So much for the warnings. Here are some links. These are large and free. Many of them have subtle ads for Ancestry.com in them - ads that ask for a name, then offer a trial subscription. Watch out for those advertisements.

If you try the links and don't find anyone, go to

It repeats each link, but it has a whole paragraph of tips and instructions for each one.

Off the Internet, some public libraries have census image subscriptions. Many Family History Centers do too. FHC's are small rooms in Mormon churches. They welcome anyone interested in genealogy, not just fellow Mormons. They have resources on CD's and volunteers who are friendly. They don't try to convert you; in fact, they don't mention their religion unless you ask a question about it.

Answer 10

www.lkwdpl.org/wiohio/oakl-ann.htm ---
NAME: Phoebe Ann Oakley Mozee. She was named Phoebe Ann by her mother, but called Annie by her sisters. Annie promoted the Mozee spelling of the family name. While it has been variously recorded as Mauzy and Moses, Mosey is the version most commonly found in family sources. She took the stage name Oakley, reportedly after Oakley, Ohio.

BIRTH DATE: Aug. 13, 1860.

BIRTHPLACE: Patterson Township, Darke County, Ohio.

EDUCATION: Annie did not attend school very often. Apparently, she could not spell her family's name since she later rendered it ending in "ee". Her family's surname, "Mosey", appears on her father's gravestone and in his military record; it is the official spelling by the Annie Oakley Foundation maintained by her living relatives.

FAMILY BACKGROUND: Quaker parents Jacob and Susan were originally from Pennsylvania. After a tavern fire ended their livelihood as innkeepers, they moved to a rented farm in Ohio. Her father, who had fought in the War of 1812, died in 1866 from pneumonia and overexposure in freezing weather. Annie was the fifth of eight children. Her mother remarried, had another child and was widowed a second time. During this time Annie was put in the care of the superintendent of the county poor farm, where she learned to embroider and sew. She spent some time in near servitude for a local family where she met with mental and physical abuse ( Annie referred to them as "the wolves"). When she reunited with her family, her mother had married a third time.
DESCRIPTION OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Whether it be a pistol, rifle, or shotgun, the legendary markswoman Annie Oakley was masterful with them all.
Dubbed "Watanya Cicilla" (in Sioux) or"Little Sure Shot" by Chief Sitting Bull (she was 5 feet tall), her sharp shooting in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show won her many awards and captivated audiences far and wide. Her name remains synonymous with firearms and entertainment. Born in a log cabin on the Ohio frontier, Annie Oakley began shooting game at age nine to support her widowed mother and siblings.
She quickly proved to be a dead shot and word spread so much that at age sixteen, Annie went to Cincinnati to enter a shooting contest with Frank E. Butler (1850-1926), an accomplished marksman who performed in vaudeville. Annie won the match by one point and she won Frank Butler's heart as well. Some time later they were married--on June 20, 1882.-- and she became his assistant in his traveling shooting act. Frank recognized that Annie was far more talented and relinquished the limelight to her, becoming her assistant and personal manager. In 1885 they joined Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, run by the legendary frontiersman and showman Buffalo Bill Cody.
At 90 feet Annie could shoot a dime tossed in midair. In one day with a .22 rifle she shot 4,472 of 5,000 glass balls tossed in midair. With the thin edge of a playing card facing her at 90 feet, Annie could hit the card and puncture it with with five or six more shots as it settled .
In Europe, she performed before Queen Victoria and other crowned heads of state. Oakley had such good aim that, at his request, she knocked the ashes off a cigarette held by the Prince of Prussia, the future Kaiser Wilhelm II. The Annie Oakley Foundation suggests Annie was not the source of a widely-repeated sarcasm related to the event, "Some uncharitable people later ventured that if Annie would have shot Wilhelm and not his cigarette, she could have prevented World War I."

In a train wreck in 1901, Annie suffered a spinal injury that required five operations and even left her partially paralyzed for a while. Although she recovered very well, Annie toured less frequently during the latter part of her career. Nonetheless, her shooting expertise did not wane and she continued to set records. In a shooting contest in Pinehurst, N.C. in 1922, sixty-two-year-old Annie hit 100 clay targets straight from the 16 yard mark.

DATE OF DEATH: Nov. 3, 1926, age 66, of pernicious anemia (Lead Poisoning from all the ammunition she'd used).
PLACE OF DEATH: Annie was buried in Brock Cemetery in Greenville, Ohio. Frank Butler was so crushed by her death that he stopped eating. He died just 20 days later.
