My Genealogy



You are visitor









This is my genealogy dating back to Benjamin Drake 1729-1827. The first account I have of Benjamin is in Huntingdon County, Pa. Huntingdon County,PA, was created out of Bedford County, Pa which was in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Benjamin sold land to John Warts in 1764. Benjamin, and his family were counted in the 1790 census for Huntingdon County, PA. The Juniata River runs through Huntingdon County. and it was along this river where four of his boys were born. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Elijah are the more sought after sons in the genealogy group in which I participate. Benjamin also had other sons and daughters, I am told, but are not mentioned as much as the four sons mentioned above. The wife (wife's?) of Benjamin are not known for certain.

Shortly after the 1790 census in Huntingdon County, PA., Benjamin and his family moved further south to Carter County, TN. In 1795, records show where Benjamin bought land there in Carter County, TN., from an Andrew Greer, which then was a part of the Washington Territory of North Carolina. Some of Benjamin's sons also purchased land around the same area.

About 1805/6, Isaac, Jacob and Elijah decided to move further west to Warren County, TN. Van Buren County, TN was created out of Warren County, TN., and this is where Elijah settled, raised his family and died there. Jacob, and his son Isaac, along with his brother Isaac, moved even further west to Madison County, AR. They settled in a place now known as Drakes Creek, AR., which was named after Jacob. Jacob was also known as "Juniata Jake" because he was born along the Juniata River in PA.

My ancestors from Jacob on down are buried at Drakes Creek, AR. You will note that most of these genealogy pages are out of the "Descendants of Jacob Drake", which is my line. You who are out of the line of Abraham, Isaac and Elijah, I would like to request that you send me any additional information that you might have. I would like to receive it in the "Descendency Outline Format" like I have these genealogy papers formatted. I can then insert the information into that particular line at a particular spot. Here is a brief look at my immediate ancestors. After you view this list, I will also include the other 5000 relatives in a decendant outline format from Benjamin on down.
--1. Benjamin Drake 1729-1827
---2. Jacob Drake 1779-1856
----3. Isaac Drake 1815-1890
-----4. Benjamin Franklin Drake 1845-1919
------5. Jacob Franklin Drake 1883-1971
-------6. Willie Ray "Bill" Drake 1903-1965
--------7. (Me) Garlen Jackson "Jack" Drake 1926

Please note that the number just before the name represents the particular generation as it relates to Benjamin. You will also find this true throughout all the lines of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Elijah. You will find the descendants of Abraham and Isaac in My Genealogy. You will find Jacob's descendants in My Genealogy-1 thru My Genealogy-6.2. Finally you will find Elijah's Descendants in My Genealogy-7 thru My Genealogy-7.5 Please note, I have highlighted my ancestors from Benjamin (1729-1827) down to me Garlen Jackson "Jack" Drake in the color blue. This will help you quickly identify my direct ancestorial line. Maybe from all the different lines below, you can relate to some of those, which will relate to my line, and behold, I have found another cousin. If you do, please give me a call. All you have to do is click on the E-MAIL under the mail box, and up pops an e-mail form already addressed to me. I will place these little mail boxes throughout the genealogy sheets for your convenience. Just fill the e-mail in as you would any other, and I'll be glad to hear from you. If you do have additional ancestors to add to these lists, just "Copy" your "Descendant Outline" format and "Paste" it on the e-mail.
