Steve,  I pretty much had the same info except I didn't have the parents of Capt. Francis Drake, so thanks.  And will take it with a grain of salt  :).  I think I found all my info off of the rootsweb site. And another family member but she only went to Joseph Drake. 
 
Also on Elijah Friend- his daughter Malinda married John Fry.  I think you might haave someone else listed and maybe this Frazier was a first husband.  But I have Malinda's will and I have an obit for one of her sons that lists other children that are listed on her will (make any sense?) So in a round about way I do have proof that she did marry John Fry and then had a grandmother of mine Margaret. (both of these I put on the Friend's site-if your interested.)
