Note on Husband: Daniel DRAKE - shared note

Daniel was found in the 1880 Census for Clay Twp, Adair Co, Missouri

His father, Ralph, died after the 1870 Adair Co., MO Census. Brother, Andrew J. moved to Iowa, and Ralph is found buried in Delaware Co., Iowa. Daniel and family probably moved, too. They are not found in the Adair Co cemeteries. Daniel also had brothers in Wisconsin and Ohio--other possiblities for his relocation.

 

Daniel was deaf and dumb due to measles, according to census reports.

 

Daniel's father, Ralph was living with his family in 1860 and 1870 in Adair Co., Missouri.

 

Daniel's occupation was given as Carpenter.

 

Vera Morgan Knowlton found a record where Daniel Drake was listed in the Ohio Institution for the Deaf and Dumb, Sunday Creek, Perry Co., Ohio. Daniel's birth date of 8 Jan 1822 is from this record. His date of admission was 15 Nov 1841. Cause of deafness given as "unknown". Ralph Drake was named as his relative. Daniel was discharged 27 January 1847. Vera speculates that this may be where Daniel learned to be a carpenter.
