I found a Robert Drake who moved to Indiana.

This one might not be quite old enough.In the 1840 census he was about 60.
Robert Drake found in:
Maryland Genealogical Society Bulletin, Volume 1-38
Vol. 13, No. 4, November 1972, Maryland People Who Moved to Indiana - Dearborn & Ohio Counties, Page 227
Enoch Drake, Rising Sun, Ohio, Indiana said to be the first white child born there in 1803. His parents were Robert Drake and Mary Pickett of NC and MD.

Montgomery County, Maryland, Revolutionary Patriots Listings, Page 98
Drake, Robert, private, 3rd Co, middle Btn militia, 1777,took the oath of allegiance before Hon.William Deakins Jr before March 3, 1778,Lived in the upper part of Potomac Hundred( one taxable in 1777)
In those days they didn't differentiate by towns or exact locations. Just the hundred they lived in.
