    Hi, Greg,
    I am looking for cousins who are descendants of Charles Drake and Ruth North Drake, who lived and died in Syracuse NY. I have a family photo in which Ruth appears but I don't know which woman she is. In the photo is her father, John North and all the siblings. (I'd love a photo of Ruth-will share the family photo!) Yes, I'm a descendant of the Norths!
    Here's what I know about them.
    1. CHARLES B. DRAKE was born 1858, and died 1933. He married RUTH HANNA NORTH b. 1931, daughter of JOHN NORTH and MARY SPENCER. She was born 21 Nov 1855 in Clarence St., Old Kent Rd., London, England, and died 1937 in Syracuse, NY, USA.

    More About CHARLES B. DRAKE:
    Burial: 03 Feb 1933, NY, Onon.Co., Syracuse, Myrtle Hill Cem.

    Notes for RUTH HANNA NORTH:
    Diltz Berry left a note that she & her husband lived on Valley Drive in Syracuse, NY.

      Hi Greg!

      Can you be more specific as to who you are looking for. I do a lot of research on the Drake surname in New York and it includes all the various Drake lines there. I need names, locations and dates to help you.

      Raymond Drake

      Hi Ray Drake here.
      I was just wondering gggrandfather came from somewhere in New York State. He was born in 1814 his name was Joel Drake.
      His father was John Drake and his mother was Mary they die and are buried in Calhoun county Michigan. The trail goes cold there. I had dna test done it seems that I am decended from Capt Francis Drake of Piscataway New Jersey. I cannot connect John Drake to Piscatawy only by DNA. I was wondering if anybody has any clues?
