Need some help in locating information on Hannah Drake.
the story goes:
"Hannah Drake was born 1835. Some say she was a Shawnee Indian girl, that Ralph and Catherine Husselton Drake found on the road and took her in and raise her as their daughter. This was never told in my family. She married my grandfather Samuel Morgan 16 Apr. 1856. They had 11 children and spent all there life in Perry Co. The last record I have of her was 1898, when they sold land to there daughter Sarah Crothers. Samuel died 9 Apr. 1900, the death record says he was married, but I can't find a death record for Hannah." (information provided by my Aunt Vera Knowlton)

We can't find her date or place of death or her burial place. Can anyone help? Does anyone know if this story is true?
