DAKE FAMILY:
|
I was at a dear friends funeral this week and the person was a well known minister. The church was packed and their wasn't room for me to sit with my relatives. The pew up from my relatives had a spot and they made room for me. There were two ladies there that had to be sisters. They were like peas in a pod. I didn't get their first names put their last name was Dake. I've heard that name all my life, so I thought I would do a look-up. I was in Pulaski County, but I knew these were the same Dakes as MIller County and probably were from Miller County. There was a James P. Dake age 16 (Ohio) living with John & Matilda Shelton, in the 1860 census of Miller County. (Equality Twp) 1870 census: (Richwood Twp) (I believe this is the main man) William A.
