Keep in mind: What the page says: Confirmed from the page image, with the dates as printed: Ann, d. Natthaniel and Mary, Sept. 9, 1712; Gorge, s. Nathanil of Westbrow and Mary, Feb. 18, 1719-20; Hannah, Dec. 27, 1707; John, March 16, 1714-15; Jonathan, Aug. 21, 1717; Mary, March 31, 1710; Natthaniel, Jan. 7, 1703 (the year is printed 1703); William, Feb. 18, 1705; most with the note that the church record spells the name Oak. The same page prints 'OAK, Mary, bap. Nov. 29, 1741,' a different, later Mary, and later Oakes and Oaks families (Albert and Abigail; John and Experience) that are not Nathaniel's line. Whether these are our people: Likely, not Confirmed. The eight names, their birth order and the parents' names 'Natthaniel and Mary' match exactly the eight children the 1826 Worcester Magazine footnote gives to Nathaniel Oaks and Mary Holloway, and the tree holds the same eight; the page names no surname for Mary, and the tie to the tree's Nathaniel Oak(e) and Mary (Holloway) Oak rests on that match and the Marlborough place. William (b. 18 Feb 1705) is Likely the William Oakes of 18 who died in the 1723 Shrewsbury fire, by age alone. The 1741 baptism is not tagged. A caution on the date: Natthaniel's 7 Jan 1703 falls in the old-style January-to-March window, where a year written plainly as 1703 is often meant as 1703/4 in today's reckoning; the page does not say which the clerk meant. The parents' own Concord marriage, dated "March ye 2d 1703," carries the same ambiguity and is not independently resolved either (see the Nathaniel Oake story). This is a caution about reading the date, not a claim that one reading is correct.

Under OAKE the entry reads 'OAKE [Wid.], Mary of Westbrough and Thomas Rice, July 2, 1722'; under OKE, 'Nathanel and Tabatha Rice, Feb. 20, 1726-7'; the other Oak, Oakes and Oaks marriages on the page are those of later men (Ebenezer 1846 and 1848, Almira 1824, Beriah 1804, Daniel 1783, George 1765, Sarah 1741). The page names no first husband for the widow Mary. Whether these are our people: Likely, not Confirmed. Mary, a widow of Westborough, matches the tree's Mary (Holloway) Oak, widow of Nathaniel Oak(e), who the tree has remarrying Thomas Rice, but the page itself does not say whose widow she was; the match rests on the name, the widow's status, the date, Westborough and the tree's own marriage to Thomas Rice. 'Nathanel Oke and Tabatha Rice' matches the tree's Nathaniel Oak (b. 1703) and Tabitha Rice (the tree's son of Nathaniel and Mary), by names and date. The other Oak entries on the page are not tagged.

Keep in mind: Confirmed. Entries marked C.R. are church-record dates printed as births: George's 7 July 1728 is a baptism (the Marlborough record has his birth about 18 Feb 1719-20), and Seth's 8 Apr 1733 is a baptism (his birth is 1 Apr 1733 per the loose return). William, son of Nathaniel (1728), is not William Oak b. 1705. Identification of the fathers with the tree's Nathaniel b. 1703/4 and John (1715-1752) is by name, place and date (Likely).

Keep in mind: What the page says: Confirmed. The footnote says Nathaniel Oaks came from England; married Mehitabel, daughter of John Rediet, who died 25 Nov 1702 without children; his second wife Mary was a daughter of Adam Holloway; the children were Nathaniel (of Bolton), William (burned at Shrewsbury in Capt. Keyes's house), Hannah (m. Gershom Fay Jr., d. 8 Mar 1806), Mary (m. Daniel Maynard, Marlborough), Ann (m. David Maynard, Westborough), John, Jonathan (removed to Harvard) and George. The text says nothing of a shipwreck, a cabin boy or a catamount; it is a printed account of 1826, not a contemporary record. Whether these are our people: the page names Nathaniel Oaks of Marlborough, his two wives and his children, and the tree holds the same parents and the same eight children with the same spouses (Likely for each child, since the tie to Nathaniel rests on this 1826 account). That the 'William' of the footnote is the William Oakes aged 18 named in the Boston News-Letter of 15 Aug 1723 is Likely, not Confirmed: the footnote is a later secondary account. Not tagged: John Rediet and the other people named on the page.
