--- "The Family and Heirs of Sir Frances Drake" Vol. 2, 1911, page 36-7:
By his wife, Prudence Savery of Slade, who predeceased him, John Drake had four sons -- William, his heir; John and Francis, who served in the Royal Navy and died without issue; Henry, of whom we shall have more to relate hereafter -- and four daughters, viz.: Prudence*, who in her father's lifetime married John Hele, Esq., of Little Stert, where her arms, impaled with those of her husband, may still be seen carved on the granite posts of the gates which lead to that interesting old manor house; Anne, who married Thomas Williams, Esq., of Stowford; Gertrude, who became Mrs. Cunninghamd, and Jane. The two last and all the sons were minors and unmarried when their father died.

* Prudence Drake married secondly her cousin, William Savery of Slade, and thirdly Lieutenant Sassure, R.B. A mural tablet erected to her memory is in St. Andrew's Church, Plymouth.

Family/Spouse: Prudence Savery. Prudence (daughter of Unknown Savery) was buried in Ermington, Devon. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

--- "The Western Antiquary" Vol. 1, 1882, page 13:
I have been much interested in the letter of your correspondent "Fess" concerning the monument in St. Andrew's Church to Capt. Francis Drake. The arms 1 and 4 or, a lion rampant, gules, 2 and 3 Sable, are those of Pollexfen. Capt. Francis Drake married Jane Pollexfen at St. Andrew's Church in 1708; he was the son of John Drake of Ivybridge, third son of Sir Francis Drake, created a baronet in 1622, and first cousin to Rev. Bamfylde Drake, Rector of Farway, Devon, my lineal ancester; in his will, dated 1711, in the reign of Queen Anne, he is described as Commander of Her Majesty's Ship Swallow. He left his property to his sister Purdence Saussure. I believe he died sine prolc.

The monument "Fess" calls attention to is in memory of Francis Drake, Lieut. of H.M.S. Rye in 1697, Capt. of H.M.S. Swallow, died 26th Dec., 1729, without issue; will proved P.C.C., 6 Auber, bequeathing all his property to his eldest sister, Prudence Saussure, widow, who died aged nearly 90, as it is said, and, I believe, was buried with him in St. Andrew's. Her baptismal register (Buckland Monachorum) dates 15th June, 1655. He married Jane Pollexfen, whose arms are impaled, should have been Qrly. 1 & 4 Arg. or lion ramp. Gu. 2 & 3 az. The new departure from the original blazon is a trifle in Church restoration. He was the son of John Drake, of Ivybridge, by Prudence (Savery?), 3rd son of Sir Francis Drake, the first baronet, nephew of the great Sir Francis.

This infant fled from our admiring sight
his stay so short, so sudden was his flight

That the earths two vile for so much innocence.
Reader relent since thou noe more shall see
This matchless child but in his Effigie.
