    Notes:

    Source: Garry Oaks : 4 marriages I will tell you what I know of him to tide you over until you can get hold of H.L. Oak's work. Jonathon was born in Skowhegan, Maine Aug.21, 1717. Jonathon had 4 wives and 16 children in all. From about 1766 he was referred to as "Captain" in the official records; "...This would indicate service in the French-Indian wars [and] ...he fought with Wolfe at Quebec and was employed to make the fallen hero's coffin." It also talks of an island in the Kennebec river that is (or at least was in 190 0) still named after him. He died (it appears) in 1784. When written in 1900, Capt. Jonathon Oaks had some 5000 descendants.

    [holloway.GED] [Overfelt.FTW] Source 1: You may already know this, but the reason that Nathaniel's ba ckground is such a mystery is that he (according to a family Bible) arr ived in Boston as the result of being the lone survivor of a shipwreck. H e was a cabin boy on the vessel and was later "bound out" as a servant s ince he had no family or money in the colonies. There is a neat little a side in the Bible that talks about how Nathaniel prayed as he swam to s hore and "promised the Lord if He would preserve him to get to land he w ould never go onto the water again." He kept this promise, even though h e lived on the west side of the Charles river. Whenever he went to Bos ton he always went around the neck of the river rather than cross it!
