Captain Andrew Drake was a military officer in the Province of New Jersey.
Burial:
Andrew Drake's grave has two tombstones, a large elaborately carved headstone and a smaller equally beautiful footstone. This footstone is a rare specimen, few from the 1700s survive intact and in situ. Most footstones in cemeteries were removed to make mowing the grass easier. This appears to be the second oldest extant tombstone in the cemetery.
