Note on Historical Record of the Posterity of William Black
Cyrus Black's information on Martin Gay Black Oxley's family is incomplete. He only mentions one of Martin's wives (Emma Lloyd), and that he "has one son named George Provost." The son mentioned in the Historical Record must be George Henry Oxley.
