Are you aware that there was a big hoax in the early 1900's abaout the estate of Sir Francis that sent a lot of people scurrying to prove their realtionship with Sir Francis that didn't pan out? There was even a book released called "The Visitations of Devon" which was said to show the family tree of Edmund Drake, the father of Sir Francis. It too has been found to be a hoax, printed to falsely help people in making their family tree match up.

Be careful of what you read!
