Acorn from this oak?[edit]

I believe that one of the acorns from the Charter Oak spurred a tree that now is thriving in Fairfield, CT.

Captain Joseph Wadsworth[edit]

How can this article not actually name Captain Joseph Wadsworth? I'm no expert, but wasn't the the American hero of the whole incident? Filiocht 11:26, Jan 28, 2005 (UTC)

Fate of the tree?[edit]

The article does not say anything about what happened to the Charter Oak. I believe it was hit by lightning and destroyed, but I could be wrong. I know it was destroyed in the 1800's — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.4.69.92 (talk) 23:23, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
