I have posted on my webpage a complete transcription of Chapter III of the book, "The History and Antiquities of Hawsted in Suffolk", 1784, by the Rev. Sir John Cullum, Bart. The chapter which is posted online at this time is "Lords of the Manor, and Other Proprietors of Land". I have included the DRURY section of this chapter as a separate page. Included are scanned engravings of the seals of Drury, Fillet, Clopton, Lely, and Curteys families or individuals. In-depth discussions are made of the Middilton, Talmach, and Bokenham families who possessed or lived at Hawsted Manor at one time or another and many area family names are also mentioned. Scans of three pages of DRURY fold-out pedigree charts, a CULLUM pedigree chart, and a CLOPTON chart from the book are also posted and include a number of Suffolk names who married into the these families in the 1500-1700 period. (These take a little while to download due to the size of the charts.) This line of the DRURY family includes several knights and baronets, and descends from the time of William the Conqueror. Their ancestor is said in the book to appear on the "Roll of Battail Abbey" and to have accompanied William from Normandy. The line moved from Suffolk to Docking, Norfolk and then to St. Mary's County, Maryland and later (1795) to Prairie Du Rocher, Illinois and Ste. Genevieve, Missouri and surrounding counties. Other branches settled in Ireland and eventually Canada. The Hawsted estate, which is the subject of the book, is near Bury St. Edmund's in Suffolk County in the Hundred of Thingo.
