==Personal life==
Oakeley, born Edward Atholl Oakeley, in Rhoscolyn, Anglesey, Wales, was the eldest of four sons of Sir Charles Richard Andrew Oakeley, 6th Baronet and Lady Everilde Anne Beaumont.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Family Tree: Oakeley, Edward Atholl )〕 He was educated at Clifton College and later went on to Royal Military Academy Sandhurst after which he was commissioned in the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry.〔 In his younger days Sir Edward Oakeley was beaten up by a gang of bullies, which in turn inspired him to take up self-defense, specifically amateur wrestling as well as developing his strength and body. Supposedly he drank 11 gallons of milk on a daily basis to increase his muscle mass on the advice of pro wrestler and strongman George Hackenschmidt, although Hackenschmidt later stated that the volume was due to a misunderstanding.〔 Following his retirement from professional wrestling Sir Edward Oakeley wrote a book about the author R.D. Blackmore and his book Lorna Doone called "The facts on which Blackmore based Lorna Doone". He also wrote an autobiography focusing on his wrestling career called "Blue Blood on the mat, the all-in wrestling story". Sir Edward Oakeley died in January 1987.
