The son of Sir Herbert Oakeley and Atholl Keturah Murray-Aynsley, he was born at Ealing in October 1828.[1] He was educated at Eton College,[2] succeeding his father as the 4th Baronet while studying at Eton in 1845.[1] From Eton, he went up to Christ Church, Oxford.[3] While studying at Oxford, he made a single appearance in first-class cricket for Oxford University against the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) at Lord's in 1848.[4] Batting twice in the match, he scored 7 runs in the Oxford first-innings before he was dismissed by Alfred Diver, while in their second-innings he was run out, having scored a single run.[5]

After graduating from Oxford, Oakeley served in the Bengal Army in British India, rising to the rank of captain in the Bengal Cavalry.[2] He made a second appearance in first-class cricket, captaining the MCC against Oxford University at Oxford in 1857.[4] Batting twice in the match, he was dismissed for 3 runs in the MCC first-innings by Cloudesley Marsham, while in their second-innings he was unbeaten on 15.[6] He later served as a justice of the peace for Kent.[2] Oakeley was married twice during his life, firstly to Ellen Parsons in 1860, with the marriage lasting until her death in 1895, and secondly to Elizabeth Tuson in 1896.[1] Oakeley died at Tunbridge Wells in November 1915. He was succeeded as the 5th Baronet by his son, Charles.[1]
