I just started taking a serious look at my Yoak family tree and have seen many places that Elias Yoak, son of John Yoak, is my Isaac's father, so I'm wondering what documentation to support that there is I can dig up?

Also is my Isaac the Isaac that fought in the WV 10th infantry in the Civil War? Some sources have death dates of 1929 and that's not what I have, but I don't know what their source for that is.

I'm also interested in anything about Isaac and his family. Isaac is my great great great grandfather, through his daughter with Elizabeth Ann Johnson, Rachel Louise Yoak.

What I know:

Isaac Yoak b. abt 1831 in VA d. 1908 in Calhoun County WV.
Married Martha Vanscoy in 1849 in Barbour County WV. He married his second wife, Elizabeth Ann Johnson, in 1875 in Barbour County.

His daughter, Rachel Louise Yoak, was born to his second marriage in 1878 and married Truman Ainsworth Flint in 1894 and the couple had 12 children, and both died in the 1950s.
