        Thomas Oakes' biography is almost certainly to be found in Philip H.
Highfill, Jr., Kalman A. Burnim & Edward A. Langhans, A Biographical
Dictionary of Actors, Actresses, Musicians, Dancers, Managers, and Other
Stage Personnel in London 1660-1800 (Carbondale & Edwardsville:  Southern
Illinois University Press, 1973-    ).  (The copy on our campus is in another
library than the one I work in, and I don't have time to run over there today.
If you don't have easy access to a copy, let me know.)
 
        Yours,
 
        David Lasocki
        Head of Public Services
        Music Library

In response to Abigail's query, Ben Ross Schneider demonstrated his
*London Stage* database on a PC at the 1990 SAA conference in Philadelphia
last April.  The entire database will ultimately fit on "thirteen or
fourteen 3 1/2-inch disks, and the search time will be more like 18
minutes," according to his essay for the Computer Applications seminar.
 
Fortunately, he also gives his address at the top of this paper:
 
B.R. Schneider
Lawrence University
Appleton, WI  54912
 
bitnet: <SCHNEIDB@lawrence>
 
Hope this is of assistance.
