How it is shown: Complete page as supplied; no crop, no retouch, no search highlight.
Keep in mind: The appraisers are James Bowman, James Miller and Phineas Hardy (second read). Tagged to Mary (Holloway) Oak as Likely only: Parkman's diary (cited in the folder) has Capt. John Fay marrying the widow Mary Rice, whose grandson was Jonathan Oake, but this file does not name her and no widow's allowance paper is in the loose file. Read twice (then B/Main second read, whose corrections are in the folder).
