Linda,    You wrote: I have Mary Elizabeth Drury m. William S. L. Abell.  He died in 1859 and she was still living in 1870.  It's not the same girl.  I haven't found anything to indicate that Elizabeth had been married before.   This has me a little confused as I also have a Mary Drury who would have been her sister married to Marcellus Simpson.

Linda Reno Can you post what you have concerning the Leonard JOHNSON who married Mary HOWARD? I have no dates on him, or his children.

Don, Unfortunately, I think we're both guessing as to the children of Peter Drury. I've never found any administration accounts, wills, or other documents that would indicate exactly who they were. He may be the same Peter Drury that married Ann Hayden and then Mary Cox, but I don't know for sure. 1. Benedict Drury. All I have is the date of his marriage to Susan Fowler. 2. Susan Drury. All I have is the marriage to John Walter Beaven. Agree she was born in 1798 and have the same death date. 3. Mary Drury. Marcellus Simpson was m. to Mary Drury, but no way of knowing if she was Peter's daughter. In case you don't have this: 7/17/1851: Death. In this city, yesterday (7/16/1851), Mr. Marcellus Simpson, in the 52nd year of his age. His funeral will take place from the residence of Louis Marceron, on Pennsylvania Ave., near the Navy Yard, this evening at 4 o'clock. The friends and relatives of the family are respectfully invited to attend. (Daily National Intelligencer, Marriage and Death Notices, 1854-1854, Pippenger). 4. Cornelius Drury. He m. Mary Dunbar, but I don't think she was Mary Ann Dunbar, dau. of John Dunbar and Frances Abell. Agree with the second and third marriages. 5. William Drury. I do have him placed as a son of Peter based on this: I have placed him in this family because I believe Margaret is his dau. and the niece of Mary Drury Abell and cousin of Peter Drury, but he could be the son of Clement Drury. In 1870, Margaret Drury was living with Mary (Drury) Abell, widow of William S. L. Abell. In 1900, Margaret was listed in the home of Joseph Benjamin Drury as a cousin (JB Drury was the son of William H. Drury and Martha Dyer). 6. I have no record of a Bennet Drury. 7. Ann Drury, who you place as the daughter of Peter Drury and Ann Hayden. The dates don't work. They weren't married until 1/23/1816 and she was born 3/12/1810. The Ann Drury who married John Beatley was born in 1798. Below are records that Tom Jennings and I have collected: 1850, 1st Ward, Baltimore: 70 80 Joseph Beatty 22 M Segar Maker Alexandria, Va 1 70 80 Celestra Beatty 24 F St.Marys Co.

The friends of the family are requested to attend her funeral this (Friday) afternoon at five o'clock, from her late residence, No. 242 Eastern Avenue. 8. Peter Drury and Ann Hayden had two daughters named Rebecca. The first one was born 1816-1819 and died in February 1819. They then had a daughter named Rebecca who was born February 7, 1820 "baptized by her father on the day of her birth" according to Jesuit Missions. I would have to believe this Rebecca also died and that's why her father's baptism was allowed to stand. The Rebecca Drury who m. Samuel Wise was born about 1815. Her age remained pretty consistent throughout the censuses. I don't think she was Peter's daughter.

This has me a little confused as I also have a Mary Drury who would have been her sister married to Marcellus Simpson. My chart for Peter (her father) is listed below. Corrections please.
