You may be interested to know that there is a definite connection between the Draytons of Mancetter / Atherstone and those of Charleston, South Carolina. My ancestor, Thomas Drayton, was born in 1625 in Atherstone and died on the island of Barbados in 1701. His son was born in Atherstone in 1650 and died in the Carolina colony in Charleston in 1717. Have a look at the family tree in my website for further details of the later generations. There is a book about Michael Drayton by, I think, William Dugdale. His family connections are mentioned in the first chapter. Have a look at the links on my website - particularly those connected with the family. You can get in touch with me via the website. Looking forward to hearing from you in due course.
