Francis Drake came from a modest family and was the eldest of twelve sons. After his family fled from religious persecution in his birthplace in Devonshire, DrakeÕs father switched professions from farmer to vicar and obtained a position ministering to men in the KingÕs Navy. It is at the Medway that DrakeÕs father was able to obtain an apprenticeship for his eldest son on a barque that transported goods to France. Drake was so good at it that the master of the barque bequeathed the vessel to him at his death.
