John Lake, b. c1712 of New Brunswick, NJ

NAME:  son of John Lake, Jr.  Named in his father's will dated 1752 as
"deceased".

MARR:  Sarah______.  Some researchers have said she was "Sarah Bayless" since
Daniel Baley/Bayless was named as John's brother-in-law in his will. However,
Daniel Bayless was married to John's sister Johannah/Hannah, thus making
him John's brother-in-law.  Other evidence is needed to support the theory
that Sarah was also a Bayless.

CHILDREN:  Hannah (named in grandfather and father's will); John; Joseph.
