Notes
Individual:
Elliott appeared on the tax list, in Guilford County, in 1815 with 100 acres of land, and liv
ing next to the John P. Kellam family in Guilford County, and was noted in the 1810 Census. His estate was settled in 1819. Carl Oakes feels he died in 1817 because Sarah was granted an administratrix bond, in Guilford County on November 18, 1817, which was probably not long after he died. Joel Estes was appointed the guardian of Elliott's children in a June 1819 Pittsylvania County, Virginia court session.

Deed book #43, page 14, dated October 1, 1838. Ann, James, William, Isaac, John, Sarah and " Eliot", all heirs of "Elliot" Oakes deceased make a deed to Richard "Corum" for land for $70.00. The land is from their grandfather William Oakes deceased. 35 acres. Ann Oakes and "Elliott H. Oakes" signed the deed with a mark ("X") which means they could not write.

Marriage:
from Jane G. Oakes

From Constance Kellam's book: Sarah Kellam married Elliott Oakes in 1795 according to an entry in a Raleigh newspaper at that time. There is also a marriage bond dated 1797 with Shadrick Kellam as a witness, in Guilford County.
