Welcome to the Drake Estate

 
The Drake Estate had an important part in the history of coal mining, owning large tracts of land and received royalties for the coal mined there. The links on the right are legal letters recovered at auction from the Sara Stewart Estate. They contain a wealth of information about Old Forge. Sara was a daughter of Charles Drake.
