FamilySearch.org has other information such as her father was William Hovell Howell (unknown wife) and that William's parents were Robert Hovell and Mirable Knapp. However, because no source documents are given, as well as the discrepancies with several of the dates, this information likely is incorrect. Other sources say that Lake is ficticious.
