comments
From Geni member William Henry Drury:
"Hugh Drury's will (1689) is very confusing, as it is combined with the estate of his deceased son, John and that of his decased wife, Lydia. The best source that I know of for all this is The Stevens & Miller Ancestry, vol. 2, by Winifred H. Lovering-Holman, 1953, pages 53-71. Mrs. Holman was a well-known genealogist."
- Lydia Hawkins was Hugh's wife Lydia's much younger half-sister who was raised as their daughter.
- John was Hugh's only child.
- Mary was John's wife.
- Thomas was Hugh's grandson
- Daughters-in-law were often called daughters.
- Hugh had no known siblings.
