DRURY
I am looking for valid sources to cite for the the generations preceeding Sir Robert Drury and for all generations after Robert, starting with son William. . I haven't been able to confirm any of the sources I've seen listed on the web. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. As it stands now the generations from Sir Robert to William Barsham Jr. and Annabella Bland are unconfirmed and should be taken as such. I can cite no usable sources.
