Josias Drake^1,2

• Father*: Josias Janszen Drats b. c 1650, d. 1701
• Mother*: Aeltje Adamse Brouwer b. c 1664

• Charts: Adam Brouwer: Five Generations Descendant Chart

• Josias Drake was baptized on 28 May 1682 at Amersfoort, Kings Co., Long Island, New York; sponsors Willem Brouwer, Elizabeth Brouwer (recorded at the Flatbush Church).³
• He possibly died before 23 February 1735 at Middlesex Co., New Jersey, intestate (see below).
• Also known as Josias Draatz.
• Three deeds found in Kings County Deeds vol.4 describe transactions involving the same piece of property. The property, a house and garden spot situate in the town of Flatlands in Kings County, was described as "bounded on the north by the highway, south and east by the heirs of Gerrit Coerten deceased, and west by Hermanus Hoogelandt, containing two acres be it more or less." On 18 July 1717 Rutgert Waldron of New York City, and his wife Cornelia, sold the property to Josiah Drake of Oyster Bay in Queens County for £85. Next, by an indenture dated 28 Aug 1716, the same Rutger Waldron and his wife Cornelia, sold this property to John Drake of Jamaica in Queens County for £85. This deed, which pre-dates the prior deed by almost a year, was not recorded until 9 June 1720. Finally, by an indenture dated 12 April 1719, Josias Drake of Flatlands, conveyed this property to John Drake of Jamaica for the same £85. By this deed, Josias signed his name as Ijoseijas Drake. It is not certain wether the Josiah/Josias Drake mentioned in these deeds is father or son.⁴
• On 23 Feb 1735, administration on the estate of a Josiah Drake of Middlesex Co., New Jersey was granted, "Int. of John Berrien, merchant, of Somerset Co., as administrator. Andrew Hay of Perth Amboy, innkeeper, fellow bondsman." (Lib. C, p.71). The only other Josias Drake known, who might have lived in Middlesex Co. at this time, would be his father, Josais Janzen Drats.⁵
• Josias Drake is NOT Joseph Driggs as proved by recent DNA testing of direct descendants of both Josias Janszen Drats and Joseph Driggs. According to published accounts of the descendants of Joseph Driggs, of Middletown and East Haddam, Connecticut (Driggs Family History, two volumes, 1959, and 1971) who contend that the Driggs family progenitor, Joseph Driggs was born Josias Drats/Drake, Jr., son of Josias "de Raet" and Aeltje Brouwer. This idea, however, has now been disproved. DNA test results (Dec. 2008) of a confirmed direct descendant of Joseph Driggs have been compared to the previously acquired DNA test results of a number of different descendants of Josias Janszen Drats. It is clear that any common ancestor, shared between the Driggs and Drats/Drake families, would have lived thousands of years ago. It is very clear, that a common ancestor could NOT have lived within the past eight to ten generations or within the past 300 years (see footnote).⁶
