Elizabeth Prideaux Drake, Prideaux-12, is well-attested. She shares a duplicated mother with Drake-1: Edith Hatch. A merge has been proposed between Hatch-160 and Hatch-3627. The dates of Hatch-3627 are unsourced and should be disregarded.
Elizabeth Prideaux Drake is correctly identified as the wife of Robert Drake and the mother of Robert Drake. Her LNAB is Prideaux, not Drake. The profile of Drake-1 should be merged into Prideaux-12, with the data for Prideaux-12 retained.
THEN
Elizabeth Maude Crandall Hatch-3628 can be renamed with her correct maiden name "Drake". Otherwise a big mix-up tangle will occur.
James Crandell\Crandall b. 1586 Wiscombe, South Leigh, Devonshire, England d. 1676 Newport, Newport Co., RI. No sources for either of them. (Sources might exist somewhere).
