Note*: According to the Drake Family History, 'John bought a share of land of Ephraim Hewit of Easton in April, 1702, and settled on it in 1703. It joined the Bridgewater line north of Stone House Hill, and probably included what was known a century later as North Daily Place. The remains of the cellar may still be seen [in 1895]; the massive door-step, a good bulkhead way and other signs are indications of a well appointed house.' Parents:
