    1. [FLESCAMB] Oakfield, Fifteen Mile House location
    2. I have a pension application which mentions Oakfield and Fifteen Mile House as the location where a Civil War soldier was killed and buried. This was supposedly in Escambia County, Florida and not too far from Pollard, Escambia County, Alabama. There is a mention of Oakfield on the Escambia County Civil War Chronology page at http://www.rootsweb.com/~flescamb/civwar.htm as shown below but I'm at a loss to find where it was located. 1863 17 Feb -- Federals scout from Pensacola to Oakfield. Can anyone shed any light on this? Bob Bryan

    3. I am curious about that, too. The Oakfield I know about is north of Airport Blvd, (formerly Kilbee Lane) and west of the I-110. There used to be a big house there owned by the Maxwell family and is now a subdivision. I don't think that's 15 miles from town, though--more like 6. I may have extended as far West as Palafox. I would really like to know more about this. Were there two places known as Oakfield? Cynthia

    3. If you haven't already, post this question to the "Alabama In The Civil War" website-you'll most likely obtain several relevant answers. http://history-sites.com/cgi-bin/boards/alcwmb/ ----- Original Message ----- From: <BBryan84@aol.com> To: <FLESCAMB-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2003 10:12 AM Subject: [FLESCAMB] Oakfield, Fifteen Mile House location > I have a pension application which mentions Oakfield and Fifteen Mile House > as the location where a Civil War soldier was killed and buried.
