Person talk:Ebenezer Drake (7)

Relationships called into question

The following notes posted in 2008 on the Talk page (of a merged page) call into question whether this is the Ebenezer Drake who married Anne Dunn. I have no interest in this family and no idea whether the notes below reflect legitimate research or just someone's supposition that came to be viewed as legitimate research. If someone knows one way or the other, they should respond below to avoid future confusion. Thanks--DataAnalyst 21:33, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

Early DRAKE Family research tended to stumble around references to an Ebenezer Drake.

Sources now confirm that the Ebenezer Drake that married Anne Dunn; was the son of Joseph Drake - an older brother of the Ebenezer Drake born in 1690's. Joseph was an older son of Rev. John Drake. This makes his son, Ebenezer born in 1704 - the nephew of the earlier Ebenezer.

The 'first' Ebenezer Drake apparently died without issue. There is no record of him being married.

Family records (Hugh Dunn's bible) indicate that Ebenezer was born in 1704 - and the son of Joseph Drake.
