This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Oaks/Oakes; English Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/EeB.2ACE/333 Message Board Post: Jacque, does your book mention a Rachel Oaks or a Jemima Oaks? She married my ggg grandfather Henry English who was born in 1773. They lived in the Yellow Mountain area in WNC and had children: William, Daniel, Henry, Jr. and Gabriel English. Or perhaps Claudia, who responded to your query may know of Rachel or Jemima Oaks??? Will appreciate your checking your book for me! Julia
