How it is shown: Complete frame; no crop, no retouch, no search highlight.

Keep in mind: Partly read: the remaining lines and an oath line (apparently 10 Feb 169 1/2) were not read. Nothing in this case names Nathaniel Oak of Westborough or his family; NOT KIN (a separate Cambridge/Medford/Malden/Sudbury Oakes group); it is shown here as a probate record of the surname, linked to its own research source and not to a person in the tree.
