Jay Oakerson, also known as Big Jay Oakerson, is an American stand-up comedian, radio show host, podcaster, and actor.
Big Jay has stated that he is Jewish.
Are you sure that’s his family? The grandfather obituary doesn’t mention him.
@Follers are you sure Richard Shelby has no recent Irish ancestry?
His birth name is Jason, not James. It is definitely his mother’s family. My bad!
Also, his great-grandfather is Salvatore Tortora, not Torota.
According to the marriage record that you included, Diana and Gary married in 1989, and one of Oakerson’s siblings was born a year later. Almost certainly, either Diana or Gary is not Big Jay’s biological parent. According to one Geni.com tree, it’s Diana who isn’t his biological mother.
