Who knows if the oak from a casual acorn grew or someone planted it.

Blueassh is right that the branches that hang in your yard are your responsibility to trim if you want them trimmed. I personally am beginning to view most Live Oaks as a nuisance that can fall and cause a lot of damage. Did any of you see the huge oak that fell during Irma and narrowly missed Laurel Manor Rec Center? It fortunately fell toward the parking lot, but still took days to chop up and haul away. If it had fallen toward the building it would have caused great damage to the building.
