Looking 4 the names of the great Sir Francis Drake's siblings.?

Question

He had 11 siblings. I only know 2- Richard and Thomas... His parents are Edmund Drake and Mary Elizabeth Mylwaye. They were all born in England. Can anyone help me please????

Answer 1

This appears to be the reference for the statement that Francis Drake was one of the eldest of the twelve sons:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Dra...

Thomson,George Malcolm(1972), ‘Sir Francis Drake’, William Morrow & Company Inc. ISBN 978-0436520495.  With the ISBN number, you local library may be able to get a copy of the book for you for free on Interlibrary loan.

The BruceRuiz.net site mentions Drake's voyage beginning May 1572 which included two of his brothers, Charles and John Drake. Both were killed on the voyage.

The XroyVision link is to a Drake genealogy site. I couldn't find a full list of the siblings but there are many people with Drake ancestry on the site to help you.

Answer 2

Rootsweb WorldConnect has a few more.

Make sure you check out the information for yourself to find out if the information is right or not.  But it is a place to start
