Birth*circa 1774 John was born circa 1774. 
 He was the son of John Newman Oglethorpe and Hannah Adams. 
Marriage*say 1799 He married First Wife Kendrick say 1799. 
Census1816 He was listed as a resident in the census report at Clarke Co., Alabama, in 1816. 
Marriage*circa 1820 He married Elizabeth (?) at Clarke Co., Alabama, circa 1820. 
1830 Census*1 Jun 1830 He was enumerated in the US Census of 1830 on 1 Jun 1830 at Marengo Co., Alabama. In 1830 John had two sons aged 0-5, and two sons aged 5-10. He also had a daughter aged 10-15. He was aged 50-60, and his wife Elizabeth was 40-50.1 
1840 Census*1 Jun 1840 He was enumerated in the US Census of 1840 on 1 Jun 1840 at Concordia Parish, Louisiana.
(In 1840, John had two sons aged 10-15, and two sons aged 15-20. He was 60-70, and his wife was 50-60.).2 
Death*after 1 Jun 1840 He died at Concordia Parish, Louisiana, after 1 Jun 1840. 
Biography*  John was in the 1807 Tax Digest in Wilkes Co, GA.

By 1816, he had moved to Clarke County, AL, as he had a land grant there that year (See Old St. Stephens Land Office Records & American State Papers Public Lands Vol. I 1768-1888 by Marilyn Davis Barefield, St. Stephens Ledger B, 20 Aug 1814 to 5 Jul 1817, Book 064: 22 Jan 1816, John N. Oglethorpe, lives in Clarke County, Township 8, Range 4.)

There is a power of attorney dated 15 Jun 1820 in Clarke Co., AL, in which a William Kendrick gives John N. Oglethorpe power of attorney to recover profits for him as Trustee of the Estate of Burrell Kendrick. Burrell Kendrick's estate records should be examined.

So it would seem that John N. Jr. was married twice, first to a Miss Kendrick, daughter of Burrell Kendrick. He named a son Kendrick Oglethorpe. And John's son Thomas named a son Burrell K. Oglethorpe, apparently for Burrell Kendrick.

John's wife in 1820 was named Elizabeth, as she gave consent that year for her daughter Elizabeth to marry. She is presumed by this writer to have been his second wife, although that is not entirely clear. By her John apparently had four additional sons in the 1820's, two of whom were James M., and Jones. The other two have not yet been identified.

It is clear that John N. Jr.'s wife in 1830 was younger than he was, and was too young to have been the mother of his eldest children. Also, it seems unlikely that one wife would have had children over a thirty year time span.

By 1840 John N. had moved with his family to Concordia Parish, LA, and seems to have died there before 1850. Estate records in Concordia should be checked.
