MARY HOOGAN DRAKE
« on: Friday 29 March 13 14:39 GMT (UK) »
Hello all, hope you are enjoying the Easter Bank Holiday even if the temperatures are rather low.  I wonder if anyone can help with this one.

My 5 times Great Grandfather William Mills b. 1732 in Blickling Norfolk, died 1807 and buried at Horsham, St Faith, Norfolk, married Mary Hoogan Drake who is my 5 x Gt Grandmother.  You would think with a name like "Hoogan" in the equation, she would be easy to find.  I have searched all my known resources and am coming up with a blank.  The marriage took place 22nd Nov, 1758 at St Michael's Aysham, Norfolk.

Here is what I know about her (which is very little)

Mary Hoogan Drake b. abt 1736 and that is the sum total of my knowledge.   ::)

I am wondering if there are any Irish connections.   Can anyone shed some light???

Many thanks, Sparham

Hi Priscilla

Unfortunately I could not access the link regarding Mary's 2 siblings.   I have trawled through FamilySearch without any result.  Could you list this info for me?   Really sorry to be such a pest.

Not a problem!

Here is the details for what may possibly be Mary's older sister Prudence:

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JWXK-T87

Robert Drake married Prudence Cook 15.1.1725 Witton, near North Walsham, Norfolk

Prudence Drake born 2.5.1727 died 14.9.1727 Witton, near North Walsham, Norfolk.  Father Robert Drake: Mother Prudence.

The other children I spotted on FamilySearch with parents Robert Drake and Prudence were:
Mathew Drake born 20.3.1668 Musbery, Devon and Anna Mary Drake born 28.2.1863 Hopewell TWP, Mercer, New Jersey.  I think these two can be discounted for obvious reasons! ...

Thank you so much for your help again.  What a shame that the child only lived a few months.  I obviously cannot see what I'm looking for when I trawl through Family Search doh  ::)
