Ancestry Family Tree

Note: This tree is inaccessible without a subscription. It must be formatted according to WikiTree style guildelines, by profile, on an open tree to be accessible to all.

Her husband's FindAGrave bio states that the children produced between he and Sarah were: Sarah, Jonathan Jr., Rebecca, Daniel, John Oakes, Sr. I don't know about Jonathan Jr., because his birth date was either 1940, when she would have been too young, or 1949, while he was married to another woman (the same year another of his children were born).

It's gotten confused whose mother was whose because he married 4 times and had children with each wife.
