Not sure about the royal family connection but i have Drury in my ancestry too.
The story goes that 2 brothers joined the Bristish Army in WWI and the recruiting sargeant mis-spelled the surname as DREWERY on one of the brothers' enlistment papers - he didn't find out (or realise) until after the war but decided not to change it.

I apparently have family that emigrated to Canada a couple of generations back so give me a shout if you want a look at my tree :)

hi :)
my name is Shyanne Drewery
from what i know is that the Drewry Drewery Drury's are
all from the same family.
the story as i know was that there was two brothers by Drury and they had went to England to find that we were a royal family and the correct way of spelling it was Drewery
so when the two brothers came back the one kept Drury and the other changed it to Drewery.
But thats all i know.

Stephen B. Drewery Jr and Sr

babydoll22always — 2008-11-18 02:34:51Z

Stephen Borun Drewery Jr is my grandfather... Sr was my gr grandfather. I think Sr was married to a woman named Mabel. That is all I know. I don't have her maiden name. Jr was married to Hellen Snoddy (3rd marriage). They had 3 children, all girls. Jr also gave 1 son, from another marriage, up for adoption. He also gave up custody of another son, from a different marriage. He was married 3 times total. I think Sr. past in 1988. Jr. past in 1994. If anyone has any information... it would be much appreciated. Please send any information on either one of them to babydoll22always@yahoo.com

Re: DREWERY/DREWRY/DREWREY

babydoll22always — 2008-11-16 01:12:57Z

My grandfather's name was Stephen Borun Drewery Jr.
His father's name was Stephen Borum Drewery Sr. His wife's name was Mabel. I haven't the slightest clue on what her maiden name was, so I am unable to get that history. I don't know when they got married. I do know that they had three children. Their names are Stephen Drewery (my grandfather), Nancy, and Doris. I guess this is how they are spelled. I have been stuck on this part of my tree for a while now, so any help is appreciated. Please send any info to babydoll22always@yahoo.com.... THANK YOU ahead of time... I am willing to help if anyone needs info with the Drewery family... I have some original documents from Stephen Borun Drewery's life....

you probably already know this, but as i understand it the drewry and drewery's were the same family and just had a disagreement on spelling.

Drewry, Drewery, Drury - Yorkshire to Canada

BeverlyDrewryServati23 — 2005-12-11 23:08:11Z

My Drewry's are from Yorkshire, the spelling I have found was Drury while they were there, but when they went to Ontario, Canada it became, Drewry:

Drewry, Drury, Drewery (Apr 05) Yorkshire (County, Yorks, England)
Looking for information on this family which some or all of them migrated to Ontario, Canada in the early 1800's possibly around 1845. The husbands name was John Drury (my 3rd great grandfather) and his wife Anne Broder. They had 10 children: Elizabeth; Ann; Mary; John; Hannah; William (my 2nd great grandfather); James; Martha; George; and Esther. After this generation I have quite a bit of information, but it stops here. Any help would truly be appreciated! The last spelling of the last name was changed to Drewry when they became citizens of Canada; we believe there was a mistake made on the immigration papers. This is just a tale that has been passed through the generations. Thank you ahead of time for any help. Sincerely, Beverly

My 2nd great grandfather's name was John Drewery. I happen to know he married more than once and had oodles of children. One of his wives, Bessie Moore Drewery, is my 2nd great grandmother. With their union came three children, one happening to be my great grandmother, Myrtle V. Drewery Foreman. He lived in Louisville for a number of years, and passed away when my grandmother was young. I'd like any info anyone can give me on his parents and so forth. Any would be greatly appreciated. Please contact me if you have any.

The Drewery family name eminates from East Yorkshire, particularly the Hull, Hedon, and Withernsea areas.
I understand the family name goes back as far as the Norman invasion.

Re: Harriet Marie Drewery

secrteray — 2002-07-11 09:13:42Z

Just read your message re the Drewery family from Hull.
I was born in Hull in 1947 as was my farther Cyril(born 1914)and his farther Ernest back in the 1869/75?.
I was told that Ernest was one of 13+children.
I have been told that the Drewery family name originated in the East Riding of Yorkshire around the Hull/Hedon/Withernsea area.
Good luck in your research!

Harriet Marie Drewery

ruthlowden — 2002-07-07 14:28:04Z

Was born in Hull E.yorkshire, UK. Baptised 25/4/1872. She is recorded as dying on 30/3/1962 in Salt Lake City, Utah. She married James J Strange and George Gillings Eyre. There were several children born of whom two are still alive.
My maiden name is Drewery and my great grandfather Richard Wilkin Drewery and Harriet's father George Tindell Drewery were brothers. Delighted to learn there are still branches of the Drewery tree. Any information anyone can give would be most appreciated. I have been unable to trace any descendants of my father's siblings as he died aged 34 in 1934 and when my mother remarried all contact was lost.
Look forward to hearing from you.
