Bob I believe that Drury was probably a Grandson of Edmund and Nepathia Walker. Edmund Hodges grandson through Moses Hodges married a Griffith. Drury left Va abt 1806 to settle a James Hodges estate in Robertson Co, TN then moved on to Hopkins Co., KY before 1810. Several of John and Susannah Slayton children had settled in Hopkins Co. An Edmund Slayton had moved to Hopkins Co. The Bourland family married into Diana Griffiths Hodges family and this slayton family.
