Peck descent [?] of the Lakes of Normanton, Erby, and New En

Legg inn av John Brandon » 30 okt 2006 23:25:50

Back in July, I posted on the supposed New England line from the Lake
family of Normanton, Yorks. (see attached copy of that post below).
One of the generations was said to be "JOHN LAKE, of Normanton Manor,
who m. Catherine, daughter of John Peake, or Pake, of Wakefield,
Yorks." Surely this is the same "Kateren [Peck] wife to John Leake
_Lake_ of Normanton" on p. 236 of _Visitations of Yorkshire in the
Years 1563 and 1564: Made by William Flower ..._

Browning's _Americans of Royal Descent_, 6th ed., p. 409-10:

WILLIAM CAYLEY, lord of Normanton Manor, Yorks, by tenure, second son,
who had:

JENNET CAYLEY, sole heir, who m. (see Dugdale's "Yorkshire
Visitations"), John Lake, of Normanton Manor, and had:

JOHN LAKE, of Normanton Manor, who m. (see Plantagenet-Harrison's
"Yorkshire"), Jane, daughter of Robert Drax, or Drakes, and had:

JOHN LAKE, of Normanton Manor, Yorkshire, whose son,

LAUNCELOT LAKE, of Normanton, m. ("Yorkshire Visitations," 1612),
Margaret, daughter of Henry Twisleton, of Cirdling Park, and had:

JOHN LAKE, of Normanton Manor, who m. Catherine, daughter of John
Peake, or Pake, of Wakefield, Yorks, and had:

LANCELOT LAKE of Normanton Manor, who m. Emma, daughter of Orbert
Northend, of Halifax, Yorks, and had:

JOHN LAKE, of Erby, Lincolnshire, who m. ----Osgarby, and had:

RICHARD LAKE, of Erby, who had by his first wife:

CAPT. THOMAS LAKE, of Boston, Mass, 1655, a merchant and selectman,
(see Boston Evening Transcript, 7 December, 1904). He was described as
of Boston, by his brother, Sir Edward Lake, first Baronet, who named
him in his will, 1665, as executor. He was a captain in King Philip's
war, and was slain in August, 1676, aged 61. He m. Mary, daughter of
Stephen Goodyear, sometime deputy governor of Connecticut colony, and
had:

ANN LAKE ... m. Rev. John Cotton ... [many descendants]

Although, of course, Browning is usually considered a terrible source,
the account above is interesting, because many elements in it can be
verified. For instance, p. 35 of the 1666 Lincs. Visitation, pedigree
of "Lake of Irby & Lincoln," shows a Thomas Lake who had married a
Goodyear (clearly the New England man), with a (half-)brother Sir
Edward Lake, and ancestors from Irby or Erby, Lincs.

Also, the will of Sir Edward Lake, Bt., mentions his ancestor "Sir Hugh
Caley, Knight," and expresses the belief that his ancestors were from
Normanton (a fact also mentioned in his sketch in the DNB [... what
does the ODNB say?]). See

But, anyway, in case anyone can prove the connection back to Normanton,
see Rev. Joseph Hunter, _South Yorkshire_, 2:108, for a pedigree of
"Drax of Woodhall," which shows a certain "Joan [Drax], married John
Lake, of Normanton." This Joan's ahnentafel, as per Rev. Hunter, is
....

1. Joan Drax
2. Robert Drax, of the Wood-hall
3. Catherine, 2 w[ife]. dau. of William Mirfield
4. John Drax, esquire, serjeant at arms to king Henry V
5. Margaret, dau. and coh. of Thomas de Barley, by Isabel his wife,
dau. and h. of John of the Wood-hall.

This line can possibly be taken a little further back on p. 62 of

Seeing that Sir Edward Lake's will mentions his "kindred at Tetney" ...

http://books.google.com/books?vid=0rV_O ... +goldsmith

I assume his baptism and that of his brother are the following from
extracted IGI:

Tetney, co. Lincoln

--Edward Laikes, son of Richard, 22 Feb. 1600
--Thomas Lakes, son of Richard, 11 Aug. 1615

Maddison's _Lincolnshire Pedigrees_ states Sir Edward was aged 77 at
his death in 1674, while the NEHGR for 1859 states Thomas was aged 61
at death in 1676.
