The notion that her father Robert was a Gateway Ancestor should be viewed with skepticism. (I now see that the Magna Carta Project has identified this as the correct Robert Drake)
Drake-1803 should be detached as the spouse of John Council and her profile restored based on properly sourced evidence.
