Pat:
I remember trying to hunt down this Wilmot line a couple of years ago, without much success.In fact, you provided some info that I didn't have.John Wilmot (b. abt 1780) was listed in the 1850 census as living with Gertrude and Harmon Lefferts.
As for Gertrude Ann Wilmot, all the census records point to her birth year being about 1803.She died sometime between 1860 and 1870.Thus, there would be a big gap between her and the two sisters that you mentioned from your husband's line.
I didn't have Joseph Henry Drinker either -- and I was interested to find that his children with Harriet Lefferts had names that were gender-reversed variants of the parents' names: Josephine and Henry.This happens to be a particular characteristic of my own Lefferts line.
