I think I have made a break thorugh on my Drake family, but would appreciate some help please.
Thomas Drake was born c 1804, although his age varies greatly over the census. I've found a baptism in Rockland St Peter, Norfolk, 11/4/1802 s/o Thmoas & Ellen, which looks hoeful. There are no other Thomas Drakes born around that time. There are no other children for Thomas & Ellen, but 20/2/1609, Thomas Drake (widower) married Mary Lincon (widow) & they then go on to have 8 children upto 1824 & then another in 1841. I have previously found Thomas senior in the census, up until he died in 1855, but had not kept the details, as I hadn't thought he was a relation.
The problem is that, although I am fairly sure that he is the same Thomas, I have been unable to find the death of Ellen. Also Thomas & Mary did have a son Thomas as well, is this likely or not?
Any help would be appreciated.
