When I pursued what I could, all I learned Alley Drake Thorn married someone else, more than likely because Andrew was dead. I don't even have his two daugther's names. They were slashmarks on the 1840 census and I can't find any of them on the 1850 or 1860. Only two Drake children are missing. Eliza who married James Warren, and Alley. They may be together, but I don't know where. Shirley
