Notes
"Humphrey FitzDrieu de St. Edmund of Horningsheath "
From 'The History of the Family of Drury In the Counties of Suffolk and Norfolk From the Conquest' by Arthur Campling, London, 1937.
"HUMPHREY was the son and heir of Richard fil. Drieu, and was attorney for his father in the Fine, 1204, of one knight's fee in Livermere and a tenement in Bury St. Edmund's.
He or one of his brothers not specified was concerned in a romantic story, by Jocelin de Brokeland (the Chronicler of St. Edmund's about the time of Richard I), not entirely to his credit .."
"Humphrey confirmed to Castleacre Priory the gift of Richard fil. Drieu of St. Edmund's his father; and he and his brothers were concerned in a plea before the King's Court in 1208."
"Humphrey's wife was that Matilda, party to a fine 1235, in which their son, called Robert de Livermere, quitclaimed one third of a knight's fee in Livermere as dower of Matilda mother of Robert."
