I am trying to trace the Birth Place and Date of a Robert Drake Circa 1740 - 1755 !
Have not been able to  locate him in any Topsham records!
To date I have found he had two sons:-
Robert Drake Baptised 28 Mar 1782 Topsham Devon
John Drake Baptised 2 Jun 1784 Topsham Devon
He married Mary Clash 23 Oct 1780 in Topsham Devon
Any help would be very much appreciated
