OK You All, I've been following you with the Bellis family line, but now you have brought in the Drakes. I'm stuck dead in my tracks with a John Drake that showed up in Green in Sussex County (Which was once Hunterdon I believe) He was married to a Ann Collins. According to my great aunt who was the family historian, he died inestate abt 1842. I found his inventory with my GGGGrandfather's signiture on it. I have been trying to locate where he may have been burried or anything about him. I understand he was a Colonel but from where he got that title I do not know. He may have come from Morris Co. as that's where my GGGgrandfather Timothy H. Cook came from. John Drake married Ann Collins and they had 7 children, Joseph Collins Drake b1812 m. Mary............,Nathanil Drake b1809 m.Mary Ann , Anna b.1815 m.Jonathan Stackhouse, Debroah b.1796 (who married Timothy H. Cook.) William Drake b.1817 , and Elizabeth M b1816. Drake.m Wm S. Johnson. Anyone with help or suggestions please chime in. I could use the help. Oh yes, thanks for all the tips on STONE CARE. It will come in handy. Ann Brown
