You will note that there are some 'gaps' in the birth dates, suggesting some neo-natal deaths. So, in Free BMD, I searched Births and Deaths in Sheppey District, from March Quarter 1878 to the current end of transcriptions. And this is what I found besides the known names:

Drew Gilbert, aged 0, Deaths Mar 1882 (A quick search found Gilbert born Dec 1881, Shepton Mallet, Somerset.)
Drew Rebecca, Births Mar 1886
Drew Rebecca, aged 0, Deaths Jun 1886
Drew Frank, Births Mar 1889 (From 1901 Census, probably the son of William and Mary E Drew, moved to Islington by 1901)
Drew Jane, Births Mar 1893
Drew Jane, aged 0, Deaths Mar 1893

So it is obvious that there are other Drew families in Sheppey District, Kent, over these years. It is also obvious that there are some children whose births and deaths could fit comfortably into the time frame of the family of Francis and Louisa.
