Grandmother was born in the Sophia Little Home...for unwed mothers (11/24/1919)...in
Cranston, Rhode Island.... Grandmother's father's name was Oscar B. Oakes born in
Tennessee (possibly Sparta)...he was in the Marines in R.I. and 28 yrs. old when
Grandmother was born. Her Mother's name was Edith Lucy Boyd (Oxx)....born in Newport,
RI....she was 18 when grandmother was born. Grandmother's given name at birth was Hope
Boyd.The adoption took place in Concord, New Hampshire on May 24, 1927. That's all the
info I have. Please let me know if anyone has any information no matter how small. I would
really like to find any family members.
Thanks, Stephanie Deckard
