Catherine Drury was the daughter of Robert Drury and married Sir John King. [1] Catherine (d. 1617), daughter of Robert Drury, nephew of Sir William Drury, lord deputy of Ireland. At the time of her death, her husband was working for the king in Ireland[2] ,She died on 14th December 1617.[3]

John King married, before 1599, Catherine Drury, daughter of Robert Drury and Elizabeth Carew. Robert was the son of Edmund Drury, and nephew of Sir William Drury, President of Munster, and had come with his uncle William to Ireland and settled there. Elizabeth Carew's background is obscure, although she appears to have been born at Old Leighlin in County Carlow; her father's name is variously given as George and Thomas.

Catherine King died in 1617. She and John had nine children, several of them distinguished: all three of his daughters, especially Dorothy, are said to have been exceptionally well educated women for their time.

His children included:

1. Sir Robert King MP (died 1657);[2]
2. Edward King (1612-1637), the poet and friend of John Milton, who wrote Lycidas in his memory after his early death from drowning;
3. John King, who married Margaret Edgeworth (died 1676), daughter of Francis Edgeworth, his father's colleague in the Hanaper office, and Jane Tuite; after his death she remarried John Bysse, Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer, by whom she had an enormous family, most of whom died young;[3]
4. Dorothy King (c.1613-1664), a noted writer on the education of women; she married firstly Arthur Moore, a younger son of Garret Moore, 1st Viscount Moore, and secondly the leading Scots Calvinist preacher John Dury;[4]
5. Mary King (died July/August 1663), who married William Caulfeild, 2nd Baron Charlemont;
6. Margaret King (died 1658), who married Sir Gerard Lowther, Chief Justice of the Irish Common Pleas.[1]

He died at Lichfield, Staffordshire in January 1637. His body was brought back to Boyle for burial, apparently against his own wish, which was to be buried in Lichfield.[1]
