Joseph Drake, born 8/7/1840
Right now all I have is Ohio names, but where they came from there is unknown.
Here is all I have:

Have always been told we are related to Sir Francis Drake, and he was my 16th
Uncle.  Someone had a Geneaologist do a history, but I have no idea who it was
or where it ended up. Any help out there for me?
Here is all I have to go in:

Looking for Info on this Drake Family.  I know that Joseph married Amanda Weer
(Wehr) on 12/23/1869. Joseph was born 8/7/1840, and died 4/25/1924. Amanda
Weer no dates known.
Daughter Anna born 1875, died may 1958 Blanchester Ohio, Marrried to Ulysses
Grant Goodwin.
Daughter Lulu, born 1878 and died  1957 in Blanchester, Ohio married to Rufus
Goodwin, brother to Ulysses Goodwin.
Son Raymond, born 4-14-1872,  m. 6/8/1891? to Blanch Hampton, they had
daughter, Mapha Amanda married  ?Hoskins,  son, Fred Raymond,  daughter  ?
married to Kenneth Hostins,  daughter Beulah Indianola  born abt. 1894,
married to  ?Bratton and they had a son who was a dentist in Columbus, Ohio.
The unknown daughter, may have been Evelyn Blanch Drake,   born abt. 1900

Amanda and Joseph lived in Clarksville and he died in Blanchester, Ohio in
their house that was across from a cemetery.

It is know that they had cousins that were Ellingwood's.

Any info on Joseph's family and Amanda"s family would greatly be appreciated.
