Veteran of the American Revolution.

He may be a brother or close relation to Dean Lake, also buried in this cemetery. Dean was a son of Noah Lake and Wealthy (Chase) Lake, who were married on Oct 16,1767 at Swansea,MA. A Dean Lake and Gideon Lake of Rhode Island are both listed as serving in the American Revolution.

Children: Nancy Lake Churchill, Burden Lake, David Lake, William Lake, Mary C Lake, Joseph Lake, and John Lake.

NOTE: Lois McClellan Patrie in History of Colrain lists a second daughter named Mary who married Lyman Powers. That Mary Lake Powers can be found here. It would seem odd that two daughters would be named Mary in successive years 1802 and 1803. The death record of the Mary connected to this memorial who died single in 1878 shows her father to be Gideon. Mary Lake Powers was a daughter of Dean Lake.
