What Drake family does they belong to? Seem to have some connection with the Drakes who settled Maysville. In the 1810 census there are 3 John Drakes in Mason Co., and in the 1830 census for Byrd township, Brown Co., Ohio, where Samuel and Mary Jane lived, there are William and Enoch Drake who live in proximity to Samuel's brothers, Denis and Thomas. Any help appreciated. Thanks, Janet
