Hi

I have just found a possible link to the 'Oakes' Family in my family tree. The Oakes family I am looking for originally resided in the Macleay River in NSW in the mid 1800's.

Major Henry Robert Oakes was the father of the family, and some of his children were Douglas Champ Oakes and Henry Richard Oakes.

I believe Douglas Champ's children; Douglas Sholto & Douglas Cosby Oakes moved to QLD in the early 1900's.

If you are related to this family or have any info about them I would love to hear from you.

Many thanks
