Notes for Drieu Drury , of Normandy:
Norman Conquest. Period in English history following the defeat (1066) of King HAROLD of England by William, duke of Normandy (see WILLIAM I). The conquest was formerly thought to have brought about broad changes in English life. More recently historians have stressed the continuity of English law, institutions, and customs, but the subject remains controversial. The initial military conquest was quick and brutal. By 1070 most of the Anglo-Saxon nobles were dead or had been deprived of their land, and a Norman aristocracy was superimposed on the English. William used the existing Anglo-Saxon administrative system, and the English church gained closer ties with Europe. Norman French was spoken at the court and had a great impact on the English language. NORMAN ARCHITECTURE was also introduced into England.

For almost 500 years from the middle to later 11th Century up to the 16th Century, the Drury Family lived in the vicinity of the Powerful Abbey of St. Edmund in the County of Suffolk.

The Original Norman Knight was a man of arms in a band or unit of Knights who fought under William Malet or his son Robert Malet (Drieu, a Man of Robert Malet Domesday Book) The original Drieu was one of 40 Norman Knights assigned by William I to the Abbey of St. Edmunds for Military Service.
