Date: Sunday, 11 July 1999 7:07 Below is my DRAKE line, can anyone assist me in finding additional information? I have been able to find John & Mary Drake in the Indiana 1850 Census with John's birthplace listed as MY, my assumption is Maryland. John Drake Jr. was born in Portage Co. OH, he had a brother who moved to Wisconsin and the rest of the family followed. Who was his brother? Are any of these names familiar? Any help in finding additional information would be appreciated.
