Hi there,
My name is Linda Wright and I am researching the Richards/Drake Family Tree (or trying to). An old friend of the family Edmund Mark Richards who is now 91 years old was born in Devon England and I am trying to get his Family Tree done before he goes back to our Father in Heaven and actually meets all his ancestors.
His Mother and Father were Emma Richards and Frank Richards (Cousins) and in the 1881 Census I have found a link and I have come up against a brick wall. I have found a Frank Drake; Ann Drake; James Richards; Ann Richards; Emma Richards and William Richards living in Little Brook, Cullompton, Devon England on Census night. I have tried the IGI but to no avail at this point in time.
Frank's Father and Mother were Mark & Casiah.
I'd love to hear from you as I would love to be able to find something for him.
Kindest Regards
Linda Wright.
