Drake of Chester, Orange Co., New York.¹⁴
• Will proved on 5 August 1850 The proving of David G. Drake's will is lengthy as each witness was cross examined by attorneys for his daughters Hannah and Susan. Each witnessed was questioned as to the sobriety of David G. Drake at the time he made both his will and codicil. Apparently David G. Drake had a reputation as a heavy drinker, often intoxicated for sustained periods of time. All witnessed testified that he was sober at the time the will and codicil were written. Ebenezer Foster testified that David G. Drake was married twice, and that his second wife was living at the time the will was written (22 Jan 1831). However, she is not mentioned in the will and no provisions are made for her, and according to her gravestone she died in 1829, at age 45.¹⁵
