The Oaks


As Nathaniel Hart Davis' family grew,
There is one thing he certainly knew.
He entertained many folks
So he decided to build the Oaks.


I guess this time my time machine is going to take me to The Oaks. I typed the year 1869, that was when Nathaniel Hart Davis built his new house, The Oaks. The time machine started to gallop at uncontrollable speeds and before I could say "The Oaks" I was at the Oaks. The Oaks was a beautiful white, wooden mansion, with lots of windows and trees. 

     The Oaks was built by, John Bishop, in 1869. The house was built for the Davis family. Nathaniel was the first lawyer in Montgomery. The house is 4400sqft. It is on a three acre lot. In 1996 the house had a five year restoration. The goal was to bring the house back to its original glory. Judge Davis came to Montgomery from Alabama in1845. The Oaks has been around for 144 years and is located at, 202 Prairie.
